Thin-walled aluminum alloy tubes used for structural applications can be produced by various processes among which friction stir welding process (FSW) has emerged rapidly due to its superior welded properties. But, FSW of tubular components is complex due to its curvature which makes it challenging to get the desired quality of the tube. Hence, in the present study, an attempt was made to fabricate...
