The material failure is the essence of the spot-weld failure. TS Model has been constructed by the base material (BM) zone, the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and the nugget, and takes the failure strain as the unique parameter used for judging material failure, so it can be equivalent to the spot-weld failure by simulating the material failure in HAZ. TS Model involves the analysis of five critical problems, which include the spot-weld failure criterion, the reference datum to failure strain, the nugget diameter, the mesh size effect, and the spot-weld material model. TS model takes the material elongation rate as the reference datum of the strain failure. The mesh size in HAZ, which is matched with the material elongation, is determined initially. Meanwhile, the BM consistency assumption is put forward. Finally, the relationship between some factors and the spot-weld failure load has got by TS Model. Because of the simplicity of the failure criterion and the effectiveness of the spot-weld failure prediction, TS Model will have great engineering application value.
