    The relationship between the temperature conditions during friction-stir welding (FSW), the stir-zone microstructure, and the thermal stability of welded aluminum-alloy 6061 joints was established. To facilitate interpretation of the microstructural data, temperature distributions generated during FSW were quantified using a finite-element-modeling approac
