Enhanced friction model for Friction Stir Welding (FSW) analysis: Simulation and experimental validation [PDF]
Friction is one of the main heat generation mechanisms in Friction Stir Welding (FSW). This phenomenon occurs between the pin and the workpiece as the rotating tool moves along the weld line. An accurate friction model is essential for obtaining realistic results in a FSW simulation in particular temperature, forces and torque. In this work, a modified
