Numerical Simulation and Experiment of Linear Friction Welding Process of Ti6Al4V Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using finite element analysis software of COSMAP, a three-dimensional elastic-plastic finite element model of linear friction welding (LFW) process of Ti6Al4V alloy was established. Based on metallo-thermo-mechanical theory relevant to describing the coupled fields of metallic structure, temperature and stress–strain, the temperature fields, phase transformation and stress fields during the LFW process were investigated in numerical simulation. Moreover, the validation experiment was carried out. The results showed that the simulation results of temperature,phase transformation and the residual stress were in good agreement with the experimental ones, which proved the numerical simulation to be reliable.
