Abstract

Multiply-stiffened, thin plate, welded fabrications are used in a wide variety of transport fields, however the resulting out-of-plane distortion associated with welding exacts a severe design penalty. Depending on the information required, the size of the structure under investigation and the computer power at hand, three computational strategies may be considered to predict welding distortion. If prediction of the localized residual stresses from welding is of major importance, then a full transient, uncoupled thermo-elastoplastic analysis is preferred.
