Abstract
The EMU roof with a thin plate structure is prone to buckling deformation during welding, which will affect its stability. Due to the complex structure, large size, and many types of welded joints, it is an urgent problem to solve the influence of different joint shapes on welding deformation and buckling stability in one model. Based on the inherent strain-temperature loading method, the inherent strain data of four kinds of local joint butt, lap, fillet, and plug welding were accurately obtained through joint welding deformation verification. Then the welding deformation simulation and buckling stability analysis were conducted. The results indicate that plug welding will have minimal impact on roof deformation. The roof buckling deformation cannot occur under the original and 1.2 times heat input conditions are selected within the range of the actual given heat source parameters. Under the 1.5 times heat input condition, the roof buckling deformation occurs. The results provide technical support for the selection of the welding process and the roof stability study of the EMU.
