ABSTRACT:
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the texture in dissimilar medium carbon steels welded by rotary friction technique. The Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) technique was the main technique used to investigate the effect of welding on grain size and grain crystallographic orientation in the welded joint. Moreover, the effect of isothermal heat treatment at 600°C on welded joint has been studied knowing that this annealing allows to decrease the residual stresses. EBSD results revealed different subzones in welded joint. The texture in the weld is essentially composed of three components: Goss {110} , Rotated Cube {100} , and Rotated Goss {110} orientation. The heat treatments applied on welded material had a slight effect on texture and grain size.
