Abstract

the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a new type of manufacturing process in which the relative motion between the tool & work-piece produces heat in the tool workpiece interface makes two plastic sheets joined by plastic diffusion by virtue of frictional heat. Various researches have been done over the friction stir welding of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Sheet to investigate the effect of welding parameters as high density polyethylene & polypropylene sheets are influenced by frictional stir welding parameters. The aim of the study is to develop a three dimensional model of HDPE sheet by friction stir welding using finite element method for specific experimental cases & validate the data & results obtained by experimental techniques. The friction stir welding is to be simulated using FEM model with software tool ANSYS.
