Abaqus simulation results showing a welded plate with severe angular distortion and bending. A multi-colored fringe plot indicates residual stress distribution (red=high tension, blue=compression) with overlaid arrows showing stress directions, alongside a validation chart comparing predicted vs. measured distortion.
