A recent development in the material studies provides beneficial application of lightweight alloys such as aluminium, magnesium as well as composites and metal matrices. The alloys are experimentally improved by increasing hardness in the ballistics testing using projectiles,makes them viable for the areas such as aerospace, military, defence, automobiles and so on. So the study is made on different approaches. First, by comparing different types of non-ferrous alloys and projectiles regarding sizes, structures. Second, the materials with heat treatment are also studied for investigating the hardness property by overcoming successful penetration on non-ferrous alloys. Third, material to be improvised by use of numerical studies such as 3D models, empirical models and software such as ANSYS, ABAQUS and AUTODYN, etc. Finally, the aim of this paper is to review the recent progress ballistic studies of lightweight materials and to provide a best choice of material for further on-going research.

Aluminum alloy finds its applications in various sectors of engineering. This paper discusses the investigation of mechanical characteristics of buttweld joints of aluminium alloy AA6063 along with AA5083. An experiment was conducted for different tool rotational speeds of 600 rpm, 800 rpm and 1000 rpm. Specifications of friction stir welding machine were 4 kN axial load and welding speed of 40 mm/min. Friction stir welded (FSW) joints of higher tensile strength, lower flexural strength and lower impact strength with maximum hardness, for the work piece fabricated at 1000 rpm using a high speed steel tool with a cylindrical profile was observed. Better understanding of the effect of tool rotational speed and mechanical properties was illustrated through the experimental result.
