Abstract
Welding distortion is one of the major concerns of the industrial joining practice. In
order to obtain optimal welding parameters many experiments have to be carried out. Numerical
simulation enables a virtual examination of the welding distortion without performing expensive
experiments. In this contribution some industrially applicable methods of weld modeling are
discussed. They enable the fast distortion assessment in the pre-development stage. The application
of these methods on a complex automotive part is conducted followed by a comparison of computed
distortion with measured values. Furthermore, aspects of integration of weld modeling into the
virtual product chain are addressed.
