Numerical simulations on material flow behaviors in whole process of friction stir welding
Abstract
Abstract A finite element model based on solid mechanics was developed with ABAQUS to study the material flow in whole process of friction stir welding (FSW), with the technique of tracer particles. Simulation results indicate that the flow pattern of the tracer particles around the pin is spiral movement. There are very different flow patterns at the upper and lower parts of the weld. The material on the upper surface has the spiral downward movement that is affected by the shoulder and the lower material has the spiral upward movement that is affected by the pin. The velocity of the material flow on the periphery of the stirring pin is higher than that at the bottom of the stirring pin. The material can be rotated with a stirring pin a few times, agreeing well with the previous experimental observation by tungsten tracer particles.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
