FRICTION WELDING is widely used for welding of similar and dissimilar materials. This book emphasizes on Industrial use of non ferrous materials as they are significant in the different engineering applications. Brass joints are inevitable for certain applications due to unique performances such as higher electric conductivity, heat conductivity, corrosion resistance and high strength but Joining of brass with friction welding is very difficult because it has low coefficient of friction. A detailed description of friction welding brass specimens is discussed. This book explains the effect of process parameters of friction welding on mechanical properties of welded portion. Design of experiments using taguchi technique is elaborately discussed and the usage of minitab software for statistical analysis and optimization is explained.
