Three dimensional model prepared for Plate P-4 . Progressive block dump for thermal model, five blocks lengthwise for each weld pass . Results are identical for the 2D/3D in the weld, with some differences far field in the longitudinal stresses 11 Phase 1 Analysis Summary Conclusions . Surface stress measurements from the plates demonstrate that additional investigation is needed into surface measurements of welded locations . Bead geometry arrangements played a role in scatter among cylinder model stress results – Plate weld cavity did not change shape during welding consistent beads among modelers – Cylinder weld cavity changed shape during welding modelers assumptions for bead shape varied .
