Design of Friction Stir Spot Welding Tools by Using a Novel Thermal-Mechanical Approach
A simple thermal-mechanical model for friction stir spot welding (FSSW) was developed to obtain similar weld performance for different weld tools. Use of the thermal-mechanical model and a combined approach enabled the design of weld tools for various sizes but similar qualities. Three weld tools fo...
