The block assembly of ship consists of a series of heat processes such as cutting, bending, welding residual stress relaxation and fairing With the fast development of computers, the thermal elasto-plastic analysis method has become a versatile tool for practical applications in the ship production. If numerical analysis is proved to be an advantageous tool to predict the residual deformation due to various heat processes, the optimum methods which can remove the welding distortion can be presented at each assembly stage, which will result in great progress in improving the accuracy of block assembly. In order to minimize the weld-induced angular distortion in thick weldments, this paper proposes the optimum groove design for various plate thickness as the distortion control method. The validity of this method has been substantiated by a number of numerical simulations and experiments.

부등침하로 인한 각변위는 구조물의 안정성과 사용성에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 실무에서는 현재 Bjerrum이 제안한 각변위기준이 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 현재 도로 성토 현장에서 적용하고 있는 계측시스템은 구조물의 각변위를 적합하게 나타내지 못하고 있다. 이와 같은 문제는 충분하지 못한 계측 수, 부정확한 계측기 설치, 계측된 자료의 해석에 있어 각변위 기본개념의 잘못된 이해 등과 관련이 된다. 본 연구에서 도로 성토 현장에서 얻어진 데이터의 분석을 통해 이와 같은 문제점을 규명하였다. 도로 성토 현장에서 적용할 수 있는 자동화된 상대변위 계측시스템이라는 개선된 계측시스템을 제안하였다.

The purpose of this study is to propose the proper fillet welding process for preventing the buckling distortion in thin panel welded structure. In order to do it, a heat input model for laser hybrid welding process was developed using FEA and experiment. The principal factors controlling the angular distortion and longitudinal shrinkage force caused by FCA and laser hybrid welding were identified as the welding heat input and weld rigidity using FEA. The predictive equations of angular distortion and longitudinal shrinkage force for each welding process were formulated as a function of the principal factors proposed. With the predictive equations, the buckling distortion at the thin panel welded structure with welding process was evaluated and compared using nonlinear buckling analysis and STEM(simplified thermo elastic method). Based on the results, the best way to prevent the buckling distortion at the given welded panel structures was identified as an intermittent FCA welding.

Welding distortion is more serious problem than any other problems caused by welding process, especially, in the heavy-industrial place. These welding distortions are caused by nonuniform heating and cooling of metal during and after welding operations. And these distortion quantities are must be known to worker in production line because distorions are important role in assembling part. Therefore an analytical model to explain and predict the welding distortion are needed. A numerical analysis of welding distortion which is inelastic behavior of weldment would require the three dimensional calculation. But computing time and memory would be very large, and the resulting cost might be unacceptable. Therefore we use a numerical technique for two dimensional analysis in the section normal to the weld direction of weldment under an assumption of quasi-stationary conditions. But the result of the calculation under two dimensional(plane strain) assumption was not satisfied as compared with experimental result. This paper proposed a technique for analysing the welding angular distortion by using a constraint boundary condition on the two dimensional finite element model. The simulation results revealed that the constraint boundary model could more reasonably describe the welding distortion than the plane strain model did.

In this paper weld distortion both in butt and fillet welds by flux cored arc welding has been investigated by changing welding parameters such as heat input and plate thickness, and the weld distortion was expressed as a function of welding parameters adopting the inherent strain theory as proposed by Watanabe and Satoh in 1961. As results of the research it is proposed that transverse shrinkage in root pass butt welds in proportional to ln[(Q/t_-tan.theta.] where Q is heat input(cal/mm), t is plate thickness(mm), and 2.theta. is groove angle(degree), and angular distortion .phi.(radian) in one pass of fillet welds has the following relationship: .phi..var.(Q/ $t^{1.5}$)$^{3}$exp[-(Q/ $t^{1.5}$ )$^{2}$3/] These equations provide us with basic tools to predict the amount of weld distortion in welded structures.

In autobody assembly, thin-wall, tubular connections have been used for the frame structure. Recent interest in light materials, such as aluminum or magnesium alloys, has been rapidly growing for weight reduction and fuel efficiency. Due to higher thermal expansion coefficient, low stiffness/strength, and low softening temperature of aluminum and magnesium alloys, control of welding-induced distortion in these connections becomes a critical issue. In this study, the material sensitivity to welding distortion was investigated using a T-tubular connection of three types materials; low carbon steel (A500 Gr. A), aluminum alloy (5456-H116) and magnesium alloy (AZ91C-T6). An uncoupled thermal and mechanical finite element analysis scheme using the ABAQUS software program was developed to model and simulate the welding process, welding procedure and material behaviors. The predicted angular distortions were correlated to the cumulative plastic strains. A unique relationship between distortion and plastic strains exists for all three materials studied. The amount of distortion is proportional to the magnitude and distribution of the cumulative plastic strains in the weldment. The magnesium alloy has the highest distortion sensitivity, followed by the other two materials with the steel connection having the least distortion. Results from studies of thin-aluminum plates show that welding distortion can be minimized by reducing the cumulative plastic strains by preventing heat diffusion into the base metal using a strong heat sink placed directly beneath the weld. A rapid cooling method is recommended to reduce welding distortion of magnesium tubular connections.

The protection of adjacent structures in urban excavation has been an important issue. But the research on the interaction between ground movements and adjacent structure has been scarce, therefore this study was necessitated. Current design practice for the prediction of excavation-induced ground movements heavily rely on empirical method. In this study, damage levels of brick building are examined closely by means of angular distortion, deflection ratio, horizontal strain. The results of numerical analysis indicated that the movement of actual building was 60∼65% of the ground movement, while angular distortion was 45∼65%. Also numerical analysis for the assessment of brick building can be applied to the building protection at various construction stages.

The purpose of this study is to establish the predictive equation of angular distortion and longitudinal shrinkage force at the intermittent fillet weldment using FEA and experiment. The angular distortion and shrinkage force of the intermittent fillet weldment linearly increases with an increase in the ratio of weld length(Lw) to weld span(Ls). Based on the results, The predictive equation of distortion at the intermittent fillet weldment was defined as a linear function of Lw/Ls and the predictive equation of the distortion for continuous fillet weldment.

판재의 비드 용접과정에서 열응력과 각변형의 발생기구 및 크기를 판재 단면에 대한 2차원 유한 요소해석을 통해 규명하고자 할 때 판재의 3차원 특성을 판재 길이의 크기효과로 간주하여, 구속경계조 건으로 설정함으로써 2차원 해석으로도 더욱 실제에 근접한 현상해석이 가능함을 제안하고자 하였다. 먼저 용접 입열에 의한 판재 내부의 천이 온도분포를 해석하였고, 이를 열응력 해석에 활용하였다. 2차 원 열응력 해석에 있어, 용접도중에 단면 전체가 길이 방향으로 동일한 크기의 변위를 한다고 가정하여 일정 변위를 길이 방향 경계조건으로 설정하고, 판재의 길이에 따라 각변형의 발생이 구속된다고 가정 하여, 판재의 길이에 의한 구속효과를 상당 구속력으로 간주하여 이를 단면 부재의 회전방향에 대한 경 계조건으로 설정함으로써 판재의 3차원 특성을 고려하고자 하였다. 제안된 방법에 의한 응력 분포 형태, 각변형 크기 등의 해석 결과가 기존의 2차원 해석 결과에 비해 실제에 더 근접함을 보여 주었다.

The purpose of this study is to develop the control technology of the welding distortion caused by Auto NG-GTA(Narrow Gap-GTA) welding process at the STS 304 multi-pass butt weldment. Heat input model for Auto NG-GTA welding process was established and verified by measuring temperature change and molten pool shape at the bead-on-plate weldment. With the heat input model developed, the effect of tension load on the welding distortion at the STS 304 multi-pass butt weldment was evaluated using the thermo-elasto-plastic FE analysis. In accordance with FEA results, the angular distortion and transverse shrinkage sharply decreased with an increase in tension load. This result indicated that tensioning method was an effective countermeasure against the welding distortion of the STS 304 multi-pass butt weldment.
