Robust and efficient meshfree solid thermo-mechanics simulation of friction stir welding
Friction stir welding, FSW, is a solid-state joining method that is ideally suited for welding aluminum alloys. Welding of the aluminum is accomplished by way of a hardened steel tool that rotates and is pushed with great force into the work pieces. Friction between the tool and the aluminum causes...
