Multi-Pass Welding Distortion Analysis Using Layered Shell Elements Based on Inherent Strain

In this article, a layered shell element-based, elastic finite element method for predicting welding distortion in multi-pass welding is developed. The welding distortion generated in each pass can be predicted by employing layer-by-layer equivalent plastic strains as thermal expansion coefficients...
