Abstract
This study experimentally investigates the repair of surface grooves on pure magnesium samples using the surface friction stir processing (SFSP). Grooves with depths of 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mm were created and subsequently repaired under constant parameters of 1400 rpm rotational speed and 40 mm/min travel speed. The results revealed that the stir zone (SZ) exhibited fine equiaxed grains due to complete dynamic recrystallization, leading to significant improvements in tensile strength and hardness compared to the base metal. The highest ultimate tensile strength of 66.1 MPa and hardness of 60 HV were achieved in the 1 mm groove sample. Additionally, partial dynamic recrystallization was observed in the thermo-mechanically affected zone (TMAZ), and complete elimination of grooves was confirmed in all samples. These findings demonstrate that the SFSP is highly effective for localized repair and enhancement of mechanical properties in magnesium components, offering a promising solution to extend the service life of damaged magnesium parts.

Abstract
In this study, the Friction Stir Welding process was employed to repair artificial cracks and grooves in 7075 aluminum alloy. Samples with different groove depths (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 mm) were prepared and evaluated through experimental tests, metallographic analysis, tensile testing, and numerical simulation using Abaqus software. The results showed that the Friction Stir Welding successfully repaired the defects without creating voids or surface irregularities. Microstructural observations in the stir zone revealed that dynamic recrystallization led to the formation of fine and homogeneous grains, resulting in improved hardness and tensile strength. The specimen with a 1 mm groove depth exhibited the best mechanical performance, with a maximum hardness of approximately 109 HV and the highest tensile strength among all samples. Conversely, samples with 0.5 and 2 mm groove depths showed void formation and reduced strength due to insufficient or excessive heat input and uneven material flow. Both experimental and simulation results confirmed that a groove depth of 1 mm provides optimal conditions for defect repair in 7075 aluminum alloy.
