4.4 Welding deformation prediction of large structures

4.4.1 Prediction of welding deformation of large hull structure

Two ribbed hulls with a diameter of 1700 mm were docked with multiple welds. The three-dimensional residual plastic deformation finite element analysis method was used to compare the welding deformation of ribbed and ribless hulls. Figure 8 shows their residual deformation after welding. After multiple passes, the diameters of the intermediate sections of the ribbed and ribless hulls are shortened by approximately 1.0 mm and 1.2 mm, respectively. The axial shrinkage of the two types of cylinders is almost the same about 1.5 mm. The above calculations are similar to the relevant simulation test data. Using this method, the effects of different welding heat input, bearing and supporting conditions on welding deformation were also studied, which provided reference and basis for actual production.

4.4.3 Welding deformation of extra large floating structure

The Mega-Float is assembled from many large units one by one. At this time, the welding sequence and gap control have a great influence on the dimensional accuracy of the structure. Figures 10 and 11 show the assembly sequence of the floating structure and its effect on the deformation.

4.5 Welding stress and deformation of aluminum alloy structure

4.5.1 Analysis of welding residual stress of aluminum alloy I-beam

The thermal elastic-plastic finite element method is used to analyze the welding residual stress of aluminum alloy I-beams with different joint forms to select the best joint form and to exert the maximum bearing capacity of aluminum alloy welded I-beam. The theoretical prediction of the welding residual stress is in good agreement with the cutting method.

4.5.2 Analysis of welding instability deformation of π-section plate of aluminum alloy

Figure 12 Aluminum alloy π-section structure

The analysis was carried out using the inherent strain finite element method of the shell element. Figure 12 is an aluminum alloy π-section plate in the structure of the car. Figures 13 and 14 show two different forms (twisted and saddle) of the predicted weld instability deformation, respectively. They are related to the π-section shape size. From an energy point of view, the torsion type is preferable to the saddle type.
