This paper presents the resistance spot welding process test and numerical simulation analysis of medium manganese steel TRIP steel (7MnSteel) and DP590 steel plate. The results show that the failure mode is PF-TT failure, and IF and PF-TT are investigated. At the same time, based on the numerical simulation under the typical welding parameters, the welding plate has the stress concentration at the electrode edge at the beginning of the welding. Along with the welding, there is the stress concentration in the heat-affected zone of the medium manganese TRIP steel, which may also be the reason for the failure of the joint here. The current density is concentrated at the contact surface between the electrode and the weld plate, and the error in the diameter of the nugget measured by simulation and experiment is within 7%, which verifies the accuracy and reliability of the model.
