Optimum rotational speed in FSW of copper canisters for nuclear waste [PDF]
The high-level radioactive waste will be encapsulated in copper canisters and stored in a deep repository. High power electron beam welding was the only viable method available at that time for welding thick section copper. In recent years, friction stir
