Embodiment 1

[0072] Next, as Example 1, a case where the analysis method of this embodiment is applied to a specific welded structure with a fixed shape will be described.

[0073] image 3 It is a diagram showing the structure of the welded structure to be analyzed. The welded construction is a tubular construction. Consists of ring welding C of material A to be welded and material B to be welded. The structure after welding has a length of about 5m, a diameter of about 200mm, and a thickness of 7mm to 13mm.

Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to accomplish both improvement of a calculation precision and reduction of a calculation time in prediction of a welding distortion of a large welded structure. A method of modeling a welded structure subjected to analysis by generating a mesh and performing thermo-elastic-plastic analysis thereon constructs a global model of the welded structure, and extracts a local model including a welded part from the global model. Next, the method constrains a boundary part of the extracted local model with the remaining portion of the global model, performs thermo-elastic-plastic analysis, and pastes the local model including the analysis result of the thermo-elastic-plastic analysis on the remaining portion of the global model, thereby reconstructing the global model. Thereafter, the method releases the constraint on the boundary part, and performs elastic analysis on the global model, thereby calculating a distortion of the welded structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a technique for calculating deformation, residual stress, and the like of a welded structure (sometimes simply referred to as a "structure") by numerical analysis. Background technique [0002] When a large-scale structure is manufactured by welding construction, welding deformation occurs due to heat accumulation in the vicinity of the welded portion and subsequent cooling. In order to reduce this welding distortion, installation of restraining jigs, post-welding correction work, and the like are generally performed. In this case, it is extremely important to improve production efficiency and reduce costs by predicting deformation using numerical analysis such as the finite element method to optimize response to deformation. [0003] Welding deformation analysis using the finite element method is roughly divided into two methods: thermoelastoplastic analysis and intrinsic strain method. Welding deformation analysis u...
