Abstract
The sidewall is the most complex structure and welding process part in the aluminum alloy train body, and its welding deformation is greatly influenced by welding sequence parameters. In this paper, the relationship between the welding residual stress and welding deformation of the sidewall and welding sequence parameters is studied, and the optimal welding sequence is determined. Using a verified finite element model of one intercepted sidewall, the relationships between the welding residual stress and welding deformation of the sidewall and the welding of welds, welding sequences of welds and the weld sequence are studied, respectively. Some conclusions can be drawn from the analysis results. One is that the welding results at one weld are only determined by self-welding, and have nothing to do with other welds, and welding results outside one weld are affected by welds on both sides. The second is that for a single weld, the from-one-end-to-the-other welding sequence is best, and the identical welding sequence is best for each weld. The third is that the fixed welds are firstly welded and a cross weld sequence is best.
