Abstract
Experimental investigation is conducted to examine, evaluate, and characterize the fundamental elastic-plastic stress/strain response of friction stir-welded butt joints in thin-sheet, fine grain Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy under normal tensile loading using traditional global stress-strain tensile testing and the full-field displacement measurement techniques of Digital Image Correlation (DIC). It was found that overall strength of friction stir-welded Ti-6Al-4V is comparable to the accepted values for mill-annealed Ti-6Al-4Valloy. Overall strain performance of friction stir-welded Ti-6Al-4V is roughly half that of the accepted values for pure mill-annealed Ti-6Al-4V. In addition, friction stir-welded Ti-6Al-4V demonstrates a consistent pattern of strain localization between the onset of yielding and ultimate failure.
