Transient Thermal Behaviour in a Model of Linear Friction Welding

Abstract

We derive a non-local model for the evolution of temperature in workpieces being joined by linear friction welding. The non-locality arises through the velocity being fixed by the temperature gradient at the weld. Short- and long-time behaviours are considered.
