Simulation Friction Stir Welding of Aluminium Plates in Abaqus-Eulerian Approach

FSW problem is a multi-physics problem that includes excessive material deformation and heat flow .In the current work, a coupled Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) model is developed using Abaqus environment to simulate  the two phases of FSW process (plunging and welding).This file contain CAE and English video file step by step of FSW of two Aluminium plates.During the analysis tool move and rotate in the plates and create heat in them.Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid state welding, which is recognized as a better process for joining similar and dissimilar metals and alloys with different physical, chemical, and mechanical properties.Friction stir welding is a complex process which involves interaction of thermal and mechanical  phenomena: excessive material deformation around the pin tool accompanied by a large heat flow.  Finite element modelling (FEM) of the FSW process leads to a better understanding of the effect of  the process parameters on the welding process and the weld seam properties. Nowadays, FSW finite  element models can be classified into three types: thermal, thermo-mechanical non-flow base, and  thermo-mechanical flow-based models
