In this paper, friction stir spot welding (FSSW) of
magnesium sheets were analyzed using finite element method
(FEM). Various tool shoulder types used in Friction stir welding
(FSW) were chosen as different parameter. Thermic simulations
were showed that thermic conditions vary with tool shoulder
design types used in friction stir welding. Heat energy input (Q)
of numerical model was solved analytically and calculated based
on the various parameter values. Friction factor surface
pressure and materials thermic properties which are changing
with generated heat during friction welding were also
considered in the FEM analysis. Thermic field model was solved
numerically and results were presented.
