The aim of the present work is to predict the fatigue life of friction stir welded joints in 2024-T351 Al alloy using the finite element method in the framework of fracture analysis code for two-dimensions (FRANC2D/L). The simulation was conducted under linear elastic fracture mechanics, based on Pa...
