Friction riveting is a new technique which finds its applications in a variety of domains, where there is a need to join dissimilar materials for the sake of achieving weight reduction of the components produced especially in the fields of aerospace and automobile. In this present work, a numerical simulation on the heat transfer analysis has been done to predict the variation of temperature on the surface of the components being joined. Owing to the applications, Aluminum rivet is chosen for friction riveting on Poly Methyl Metha Acrylate base material. Abaqus explicit version 6.14 has been used to simulate the results of the process. Heat flux at the joint interface has been computed and thermal distribution at the work material is predicted.
