It is known that these macro features depend on a combinationof tool geometry and welding parameters. Furthermore, it has alsobeen established that these features affect the weld strength anddecrease the joint load capacity and/or influence crack nucleationand propagation 8. As the formation of these macro featuresdepends on the heat generated from the friction between the tooland the pieces to be joined, and material flow during the FSW pro-Fig. 1. Coupon layout of friction stir lap welding;2 J.F.C. Moraes et al./Internationalcess, characteristics of FSLW highly depend on tool geometry610. For example, Yang et al. 6 studied different tool geome-tries and process conditions and their influence on shear strengthof AZ31 Mg alloy friction stir lap welds. One of the key results oftheir research was that a higher tensile load is reached when load-ing the top sheet of the lap joint configuration on the RS versusloading on the AS. A similar study by Yuan et al. 8 evaluatedthe effect of different tool designs and weld variables on shearstrength in FSLW lap joints of AZ31 Mg alloy. In their study, theyfound that the RS of the joint achieved higher loads compared tothe AS with the same process parameters. However, they did notexplore the effect of RS and AS configuration on fatigue behaviors.While there exists a few published studies focused on the effectof welding parameters on the static strength of the FSLW in Mgalloys, to the best of the authors knowledge, the effect of sheetstacking orientation on fatigue performance has not been eluci-dated. As such, the objective of this paper is to quantify the effectsof stacking orientation on fatigue characteristics of AZ31 Mg alloyjoined by FSLW through both experimental and numericalapproaches.2. Materials and experimentsFor this study, commercial grade 2 mm thick AZ31 Mg alloysheets were employed, which contained a nominal chemical com-position of Mg-3.0 wt% Al-1.0 wt% Zn, with a base material yieldstrength of 250 MPa, and an ultimate strength of 342 MPa 11.For welding purposes, the sheets were cut to a width of 75 mmand length of approximately 1500 mm. The plates were assembledin an overlap configuration and welded at a tool rotational speed of2000 rpm and a travel speed of 4.6 mm sC01. A FSW tool having aconcavescroll shoulderwith 13 mm diameter, a 3.5 mm longtriflatthreaded pin, a 4.7 mm pin tip diameter, and 6.0 mm pin root wasused to weld the lap-shear samples. As shown in Fig. 1a and b, forthe same traveling direction and rotation of the tool, the side of theweld to be loaded is defined according to the orientation of thesheets relative to the pull direction. Two sets of FSLW were created(a) retreating side, (b) advancing side.of Fatigue 100 (2017) 111in an overlap configuration. The only difference between the twosets of coupons is the overlap orientation (i.e. the orientation ofthe top and bottom sheets in order to have the advancing orretreating side on the free edge of the top sheet). A schematicdrawing of the couponsis shown in Fig. 2a. After welding was com-pleted, the FSLW overlap plates were cut into 30 mm wide by120 mm long coupons for mechanical testing purposes. Fig. 2bshows the configuration for the coupons oriented to the RS and AS.A MTS servo-hydraulic load frame was used to perform lapshear tensile test (quasi-static) for each sheet stacking configura-tion in order to obtain a representative average ultimate load car-ried by the joint. Three coupons were tested per configuration anda grip-to-grip distance of 60 mm, at an actuator speed of1 mm minC01was used during tensile testing. For fatigue testing,the coupons were tested with the same grip-to-grip distance inan MTS servo-hydraulic load frame with a 2.2 kN load cell, underload control condition with a sinusoidal waveform at load ratioR = 0.1 and a frequency of 20 Hz. Shims were used in both thequasi-static and fatigue tests in order to avoid additional bendingmoments and loads on the test samples.In addition to mechanical testing, analysis of the weldmicrostructure and postmortem analysis were conducted in thisstudy. Mechanically untested and tested coupons were sectionedparallel to the loading direction, cold mounted in epoxy, ground,and polished. The final polishing was done on a neoprene pad withalumina 0.05 m in glycol slurry. In order to characterize themicrostructure, the mounted coupons were etched using a solutioncomposed of 4.2 g picric acid, 10 ml acetic acid, 10 ml H2O and70 ml ethanol 12,13. An optical digital microscope KeyenceVHX-1000 was used to evaluate size and shape of the weld fea-tures, the effective sheet thickness, and the transverse crackFig. 2.

Microtexture char-acterization of the FSLW coupons was performed using a JEOL7000 scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with a detec-tor for electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). All samples wereelectro-polished at 3 V for 20 s using H3PO4diluted in ethanol(3:5 ratio). EBSD analysis was conducted using 20 kV beam voltagein 0.9lm steps. Microtexture data was acquired using the AZTECsoftware from Oxford Instruments and post-processing was doneusing the HKL Channel 5 package.Microhardness measurements were conducted on the cross sec-tion of the top and bottom sheets with increments of approxi-mately 0.5 mm, using a Wilson hardness testing machine. A loadof 100 g with a dwell time of 5 s was applied in order to obtainthe Vickers hardness (HV) across the weld nugget. For crack nucle-ation and propagation analysis, fractured surfaces of the fatiguetested coupons were examined in the Jeol 7000 SEM.Fig. 3.

Results and discussion3.1. Geometrical featuresA representative cross-section of a FSLW coupon is presented inFig. 3. As noted earlier, the faying surface on the advancing side(AS) usually exhibits the shape of a hook and curves upwards alongthe nugget periphery. On the opposite side of the weld, the fayingsurface on the retreating side (RS) extends through the weld nug-get toward the AS, where this feature is generally referred as cold-lap feature 8. These distinct features are a result of trapped oxidefilms that are on the surface of the sheets prior to welding. Thesetrapped oxide film features depend on relative velocities betweenthe tool and work material. The material in front of the rotatingtool is pushed upward due to the tool tilt angle. The amount ofmaterial being driven upward on the leading side flows aroundconfiguration where AS is the advancing side and RS is the retreating side.(d) and in the RS.Journal4 J.F.C. Moraes et al./Internationalthe pin in the rotationdirection1416, resultingin a hook featurethat points upwards (Fig. 3b). As this material flow decelerates onthe trailing side, it accumulates resulting in flow away from thetool pin 15, thus leading to the downward pointing lap-feature,as shown in Fig. 3c. Fig. 3d shows the peak height of cold-lapfeature.3.2. Microstructure and hardnessFig. 4 shows the results of the microstructure characterizationby EBSD measurements. In particular, inverse pole figures (IPF)illustrate the grain orientation, as well as grain size distributionof the FSLW coupon. Fig. 4a shows the locations of the EBSD mea-surements. For both the base material (BM) and the stir zone (SZ), astrong texture can be observed in Fig. 4b. This strong texture is dueto the rolling process of the Mg sheet material in the BM and thelarge shear deformation caused by the tool in the SZ. Lastly, Fig. 4cshows the grain size distribution comparison between the BZ andthe SZ, where the average grain size of SZ was only slightly finerthan the BZ.Fig. 5 shows a representative hardness profile of the FSLW cou-pons. The horizontalaxis represents the distance from the center ofthe nugget of the weld in mm. The vertical axis represents themeasured Vickers (HV) hardness value. As shown in Fig. 5, the cen-ter of weld nugget exhibited higher hardness compared to outerFig. 4.

As shown in Fig. 5, hardness values change signif-icantly across the weld. However, the hardness profile of the FSLWexhibited symmetry from the center of the weld outward, showingsimilar hardness values for the AS and RS. Moreover, there was nota significant difference of hardness measurement in the areas(b) Inverse pole figures of BM (base material) and SZ (stir zone). (c) Grain sizeFig. 5.

Thiswill be discussed later in this paper.3.3. Lap-shear tensile behaviorLap-shear tensile tests were conducted to evaluate the jointstrength of the AS and RS orientation, where three coupons weretested in both the AS and RS orientations. It is noted that, in a sim-ilar study on AZ31 Mg alloy joints, Yuan et al. 8 reported that theRS orientation achieved higher lap-shear strength when comparedto the AS produced under the same welding parameters. While inthis study, the welding parameters were slightly different from thework by Yuan et al. 8, the trend in mechanical behavior of thejoint performance in this study was similar. In fact, in this study,the average ultimate load of the RS was approximately 50% greaterthan the AS orientation. Representative load-displacement curvesunder quasi-static lap-shear testing of the RS and AS coupons areshown in Fig. 6.Regarding the fracture behavior of the coupons under tensileloading, representative cross-sections of fractured coupons areshown in Fig. 7. Fig. 7ac show optical cross-sectional views of afractured AS coupon, while Fig. 7df show optical cross-sectionalviews of a fractured RS coupon. The darker areas of the opticalimages in Fig. 7b and e show the twinning distribution due tothe large scale deformation under monotonic loading conditions.Fig. 7c and f show high magnification of the twinning density indetail. Similar results were reported by Yang et al. 6, where thistype of failure is due to localization of deformation, indicated bymechanical twins near the fractured surface.3.4. Fatigue behaviorFig. 8 shows the experimental results of the fatigue tests of theFSLW lap-shear coupons in the RS and AS orientation. In this figure,the vertical axis represents the load range applied to the joint andthe horizontal axis is the corresponding numberof cycles to failure,where we define failureas the complete separation of the joint. Thearrows on the plot indicate run-outs. It can be observed that the RSorientation exhibited superior fatigue lifetimes compared to the ASorientation at the same cyclic load. In addition, Fig. 8 indicates anearly linear offset of the fatigue behavior of the RS as comparedto the AS orientation. This result suggests a strong correlation tothe ultimate strength of the joint and fatigue behavior, which willFig. 6.

For clarification purposes in this study, we classifythe fatigue loading into low cycle fatigue (10,000) regimes.The cross-sections of failed coupons in the low cycle fatigueregime are depicted in Fig. 9. The low cycle fatigue failure of theAS is shown in Fig. 9a where failure occurred at 503 cycles at amaximum load of 2069 N. The low cycle fatigue failure of the RSoccurred at 2620 cycles at a maximum load of 2069 N as shownin Fig. 9d. In both cases, cracks grew in mode I propagation directlythrough the stir zone and into the surface of the top sheet as shownin detail in Fig. 9b and e. Also, less twinning was observed com-pared to monotonic loading due to lower severity of plasticity ascan be seen in detail in Fig. 9c and f.The high cycle fatigue failures are shown in Fig. 10, where fail-ure of the AS presented in Fig. 10a occurred at 353,589 cycles at50 m c) distribution near the facture: (b) advancing side, (e) retreating side.
