However, accurate evaluation of the mechanical properties of TC17\u2212LFW joints and research on their joint fracture behavior are still not clear. Therefore, this paper used the finite element numerical simulation method (FEM) to investigate the mechanical behavior of the TC17\u2212LFW joint with a complex micro\u2212structure during the tensile processing, and predicted its mechanical properties and fracture behavior. The results indicate that the simulated elastic modulus of the joint is 108.5 GPa, the yield strength is 1023.2 MPa, the tensile strength is 1067.5 MPa, and the elongation is 1.98%. The deviations from measured results between simulated results are less than 2%. The stress and strain field studies during the processing show that the material located at the upper and lower edges of the joint in the WZ experiences stress and strain concentration, followed by the extending of the stress and strain concentration zone toward the center of the WZ. And finally, the strain concentration zone covered the entire WZ. The fracture behavior studies show that the material necking occurs in the TMAZ of TC17(\u03b1 + \u03b2) and WZ, while cracks first appear in the WZ. Subsequently, joint cracks propagate along the TC17(\u03b1 + \u03b2) side of the WZ until fracture occurs. There are obvious tearing edges formed by the partial tearing of the WZ structure in the simulated fracture surface, and there are fracture surfaces with different height differences at the center of the joint crack, indicating that the joint has mixed fracture characteristics.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma18010128","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,31]],"date-time":"2024-12-31T07:00:37Z","timestamp":1735628437000},"page":"128","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Prediction of Mechanical Properties and Fracture Behavior of TC17 Linear Friction Welded Joint Based on Finite Element Simulation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3582-9332","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xuan","family":"Xiao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials Science and Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi\u2019an 710072, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Solidification, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi\u2019an 710072, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yue","family":"Mao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials Science and Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi\u2019an 710072, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Solidification, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi\u2019an 710072, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2312-1182","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Li","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials Science and Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi\u2019an 710072, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Solidification, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi\u2019an 710072, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"71","DOI":"10.1080\/09506608.2015.1109214","article-title":"Linear and rotary friction welding review","volume":"61","author":"Li","year":"2016","journal-title":"Int.
