Bolouri, A., Fotouhi, M., & Moseley, W. (2020). A new design for friction stir spot joining of Al alloys and carbon fibre reinforced composites. Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance, 29, 4913-4921. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11665-020-04998-1

Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) has been recently developed to join dissimilar materials. However, the traditional requirement for a rotating tool consists of a pin and shoulder in FSSW leads to a complex joining process and unpredictable defects....
