A new numerical model, Q-Weld (Edison Welding Institute, Columbus, OH), which is a shell-element-based elastic analysis, is proposed for the prediction of the distortion induced in ship panels. Based on the results of the three-dimensional thermal-elastic-plastic analyses, it was found that the shell element-based model excluding the geometry of fillet welds and including only transverse and longitudinal plastic strains is valid without significant loss of accuracy. The developed Q-Weld predicts well-agreed distortions with the three-dimensional thermal-elastic-plastic analysis and demonstrates its potential in welding-induced distortion analysis, including buckling analysis.
