The counter jib and rod support are the main stress-bearing parts of crane due to large load. But the long weld seams of their joints produce great residual stress and deformation affecting the welding strength. In order to reduce the residual stress and the deformation simultaneously, an optimal welding procedure was proposed considering the effective length of welding seam. Firstly, a theoretic model of welding seam was built as T-joint of Q355 steel. The accuracy of model was verified by the welding experiments. By numerical simulation, the appropriate welding process parameters were obtained. Four welding procedures were designed to investigate the influence of the welding sequence. Results show that the welding sequence has a great influence on residual stress and deformation of the long welding seam. The welding quality can be improved by segmented welding and simultaneous welding. The optimized welding procedure of long welding seam can reduce the residual stress by 8.04 % and the maximum deformation by 74.1 % considering welding sequence. Therefore, it is recommended in the actual welding process of crane.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
