Effect of the Preheating Temperature on Process Time in Friction Stir Welding of Al 6061-T6
This paper presents the results obtained and the deductions made from an analytical modeling involving friction stir welding of Al 6061-T6. A new database was developed to simulate the contact temperature between the tool and the workpiece. A second-order equation is proposed for simulating the temp...
