Abstract

A non-uniform heating and cooling cycle caused by a welding or line heating operation leads to deformation. To ascertain the extent of deformation calls for solving a complex thermal elastoplastic problem. In this investigation the concept of a pseudolinear constant stiffness system has been effectively implemented to solve this non-linear problem. The concept has been tested by solving a case of angular deformation of a beam model caused by bead-on-plate welding. The theoretical results compared well with those of the experimental ones.
