The investigation of the plunge stage of the tool during friction stir welding (FSW) is the basis of understanding the nature of FSW, which is especially important for friction stir spot welding. In this study, the plunge stage of FSW tool was numerically examined by dynamic explicit finite element method with more attention to the temperature evolution. It was found that the high temperature region around the stirred zone extended with increasing the rotation speed. The heat affected zone expanded with the increase of inserting time, but the highest temperature around the stirred zone changed little. The range of the stirred zone changed little with the variations of the rotation speed and inserting time. The simulation result on the temperature field was in comparable agreement with the experimental one.

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process where no gross melting of the material being welded takes place. Numerical modelling of the FSW process can provide realistic prediction of the thermo-mechanical behaviour of the process. Latest literature relating to finite element analysis (FEA) of thermo-mechanical behaviour of FSW process is reviewed in this paper. The recent development in thermo-mechanical modelling of FSW process is described with particular reference to two major factors that influence the performance of FSW joints: material flow and temperature distribution. The main thermo-mechanical modelling used in FSW process are discussed and illustrated with brief case studies from the literature.
