In order to meet the existing challenges, an advanced hybrid model for prediction of welding distortions in large structures is described. For the purpose of illustrating the capability of this model, a simulation case is put into discussion. The results are validated by comparison with experimental data, as well as with common simulation technique. Analysis of the calculation costs is also presented.
