The present investigation is part of a comprehensive failure study of friction stir welding (FSW) tools, where experimental non-destructive and destructive evaluations are combined with analytical- and physical- simulations of tool wear mechanisms. This paper focuses on the research methodology and the primary results of Gleeble simulations of thermal- and mechanical-cycle effects on an H13 steel material widely used for FSW tools for welding aluminum and magnesium alloys.
