Continuous drive friction welding (CDFW) is a solid-state joining procedure that can be used to join various similar and dissimilar materials. High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a thermoplastic that can replace many traditional materials. Utilizing experimental design procedures such as response surface method (RSM) is a reliable approach for determining the most significant process parameters and optimizing the desired responses. The current study employed an RSM experimental design to investigate the effects of the process parameters for welding HDPE rods using CDFW. The design evaluated the process parameters and three outcome responses: the maximum welding temperature, the axial shortening, and the tensile strength (TS). The combination of the three responses can allow achieving high-efficiency welds. The results showed that it was possible to achieve high-efficiency welds while maintaining axial shortening and controlling temperature. A TS >65% of the parent material's strength with an axial shortening of <3 mm was achieved.

Finite element modeling of continuous drive friction welding of Al6061 alloy

Continuous drive friction welding process is widely used in various industrial applications to assemble shafts, tubes, and many other components. This paper's motivation was developing a CDFW model using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The coupling of the process's thermal and mechanical behaviors was considered during the simulation by COMSOL Multiphysics®. The construction of phase transition curves for Al6061 allowed determining several temperature-dependent thermophysical properties of the material. These properties are then injected in a second simulation to study the temperature evolution during welding. Subsequently, these results are compared and analyzed with the experimental outcomes. Excellent comparability between the model and experimental results was achieved. A unique phenomenon in the welding temperature profile was observed and explained through the model and experimental results interpretation.
