摘要：The thermal effect of laser welding degrades the local material properties, and this inevitably leads to thermal deformation and thermal residual stress in welded joints. In this study, the residual stress distribution of laser-welded Al-Li alloy parts was measured by a combination of the contour method and finite-element simulation. First, the contour deformation of the cutting surfaces of welded parts resulting from the release of residual stress was measured by a coordinator. Then, the reverse contour deformation was applied to the finite-element model as the displacement boundary condition to invert the full-field residual stress of the cutting surface. Furthermore, a thermal/structural sequential coupling analysis method was used to establish a complete three-dimensional finite-element model of a laser-welded plate and calculate the residual stress field, taking the actual weld morphology as the characteristic parameter of the heat source, using the improved conical heat source model of laser welding. The result is consistent with the results of the contour method.
