For the computation of particle trajectories, three accurate and computationally efficient integration methods are implemented within a FE model for FSW process: the Backward Euler with Sub-stepping (BES), the 4-th order Runge-Kutta (RK4) and the Back and Forth Error Compensation and Correction (BFECC) methods. Firstly, their performance is compared by solving the Zalesak's disk benchmark. Later, the developed methodology is applied to some FSW problems providing a quantitative 2D and 3D view of the material transport in the process area. The material flow pattern is compared to the experimental evidence.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author’s final draft) Open Access Àrees temàtiques de la UPC::Enginyeria civil::Materials i estructures Àrees temàtiques de la UPC::Enginyeria dels materials Friction welding Friction Stir Welding Material flow Particle tracing BES BFECC RK4 PLASTICITY FORMULATION ALGORITHMS SIMULATION JOINTS FSW Soldadura per fricció Material flow visualization in Friction Stir Welding via particle tracing Article
