A Review of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of Resistance Spot Welding (RSW)

Modeling RSW was studied by many researchers with considering different electrical, thermal, and mechanical phenomena such as formation of temperature field and welding nugget growth. This paper is a review of the most important efforts in the field of FEA of RSW, by investigating present finite el...
