Abstract
Welding process is an efficient joining process of metals that is achieved by gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process. Localized heating during welding process can result in distortion of the welded plate. The estimation of magnitude and distribution of distortion are important to maintain the quality of products. Finite element method is implemented to investigate the distortions behavior of thin steel plate, cold rolled (SPCC) material in lap joint using GMAW process. A three-dimensional, two-step thermomechanical finite element model study was applied to analyze and evaluate distortion behavior in lap joint. The result of distortion from finite element analysis (FEA) was compared to experimental data to validate the accuracy of the method.
