welding modelling

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi

i have attached a 2D mph file where i am trying to simulate resistance spot welding phenomenon. In the file i have modeled two vertical conductors attached to the steel sheets where a weld joint has to be made on the exact spot, between the sheets, where the vertical rods are in contact to the sheets. I am trying to apply force from the top conductor side whereas the bottom one is fixed, so that the force + the applied current through the top conductors forces a weld joint between the sheets. However, i am facing problems doing so. Can somebody look at the file and get back to me with possible solution.

To understand the spot welding process please click on the youtube link below:

Thank you in advance
