Abstract
In this paper, the shrinking hole creation at the notch tip is simulated using the finite element method (FEM) and element birth and death (EBD) technique. The removed material, stress, temperature, and electric current density are obtained for estimating the effects of the hole creation. Also, the variation of the shrinking hole size is discussed by the numerical/multiphysical simulation. When the melting material is removed, it shows rational stress values. The stress field is affected by the shrinking hole size and it must be considered in the analysis.
