About this award

This is a $67,903.71 cooperative agreement awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for a friction stir welding research project. The project aims to develop spatially resolved, real-time temperature measurement capabilities for the friction stir welding process, which is a solid-state welding technique. This award is not associated with a set-aside program and is part of UAH's broader federal contracting and grant activities, which span advanced research and development across areas like space, atmospheric, and missile defense technologies. As a leading research university, UAH frequently partners with government agencies and prime contractors to deliver specialized scientific and engineering capabilities in support of national objectives.

Description

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid state welding process that thermo-mechanically joins two metals. A rotating tool is plunged into the faying surfaces of a butt weld configuration and stirs the plasticized metal together. Heating of the metal
