Welding-induced distortion not only reduces largely manufacturing accuracy but also decreases significantly productivity due to correction works. If welding distortion can be predicted through a simple and practical method beforehand, the predictions will be helpful for taking active as well as appropriate measures to control the dimension accuracy. Based on inherent strain theory and interface element formulation, we developed a practical prediction system to compute the accumulated distortion during the welding assembly process in the current study. Using the developed prediction method, we calculated the welding distortion in a thin plate structure with considering both the shrinkage due to heat input and the gap/misalignment generated during assembly process. Meanwhile, we investigated the influences of assembly sequence and gap correction on the final distortion.
► An effective prediction method of welding distortion has been proposed.
► Assembly sequence has large influence on welding distortion.
► Gap correction manner significantly affects the final welding distortion.
