In the last decade the industrial use of solid state welding processes based on frictional forces work decaying into heat is continuously increasing due to their strong advantages with respect to traditional fusion techniques. Several advances have been proposed by the scientific community regarding process mechanics, material flow and also the computer aided engineering of the operation with the aim to maximize the mechanical performances of the welded joints. In the paper Friction Stir Welding (FSW) and Linear Friction Welding (LFW) operations are considered and a review of the most relevant research issues and results is provided.
