Development of Efficient FEM Analysis Method using Equivalent 2D Model for Linear Friction Welding Analysis

Abstract

LFW(Linear Friction Welding) is the one of the smart industrial method matching to SDGs concept. It only needs a pair of blanks with no other assisting materials. This technique is now widely used in the Aeronautical, Automobile and other mechanical industries. In this paper we introduce an efficient LFW analysis method with 2D FEM model of LS-DYNA. In conclusion, analysis showed good correlation to the experimental results of the LFW process.
