Numerical Simulation of the Thermo-Mechanical Behavior of 6061 Aluminum Alloy during Friction-Stir Welding
In this work, a finite-element model was elaborated to simulate the thermomechanical behavior of 6061 aluminum alloy during friction-stir welding (FSW). It was shown that FSW-induced deformation is a two-stage process. In addition to the stirring action exerted by the rotating tool probe, the materi...
