Understanding the mechanisms of friction stir welding based on computer simulation using particles

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a novel technique for joining different materials without melting. In FSW the welded components are joined by stirring the plasticized material of the welded edges with a special rotating pin plunged into the material and moving along the joint line. From the scientifi...
