This study looked into the effects of rotational speed on the mechanical and microstructural properties of 5083-O aluminum alloy welded using friction stir welding (FSW) and processing (FSP). 750, 1250, and 1750 rpm rotation speeds, and a steady travel speed of 50 mm/min. The welding and processing joints' tensile strength properties, microhardness, and microstructure were investigated and compared to the base alloy. The rotation of the sub-grains, which produces dynamic recrystallization in friction stir welding, causes fine grains to appear in the weld region. For friction stir processing (FSP), the rotation speed is increased to 94.7 percent of the base metal's ultimate tensile strength.
