Analysis of Friction Stir Welds. Part I: Transient Thermal Simulation Using Moving Heat Source

This paper describes the first part of the development of a non-linear finite element simulation of the friction stir welding process; it is concerned with thermal analysis. A transient, three dimensional, non-linear thermal model with moving heat source was developed. Also a steady-state, three dim...
