Computer-aided method for providing control data for an additive manufacturing device for manufacturing a three-dimensional object by means thereof, wherein the object is manufactured by applying a building material layer upon layer and solidifying the building material by supplying radiation energy to locations in a layer which are assigned to the cross-section of the object in this layer, by means of at least one energy input device for inputting energy into the building material, which scans these locations with at least one energy beam in accordance with a set of energy input parameters along a number of solidification paths (30, 31) in a building plane, wherein the method for providing control data comprises: a first step of accessing computer-based model data of two cross-sections of an object section to be solidified in temporal succession, preferably immediately in temporal succession, during manufacture, a second step of generating a data model of each of the two cross-sections, wherein in the data model for each of the two cross-sections, a scanning of the building material layer with at least one energy beam along at least one solidification path (30, 31) is specified, wherein it is specified that, when scanning the locations of a building material layer which are assigned to the respective cross-section to be solidified, the impact area of at least one energy beam on the building material is moved along at least a section of a distortion field isoline, wherein the residual stress field and/or deformation field or a stiffness of the three-dimensional object is determined for the two cross-sections by means of simulation and the distortion field isolines are subsequently determined, and/or wherein the residual stress field and/or deformation field or a stiffness of the three-dimensional object for the object section is determined by measuring a test specimen produced in advance and the distortion field isolines for the two cross-sections are then determined, and/or wherein distortion field isolines of the two cross-sections are determined by determining the residual stress field and/or deformation field in the two cross-sections on the basis of values of process monitoring parameters measured during the manufacture of the three-dimensional object and before the solidification of the object section, wherein a section of a distortion field isoline along which the impact area is moved during scanning of the cross-section to be solidified later in time is selected such that it has a different position and/or orientation in the building plane compared to a section of a distortion field isoline along which the impact area is moved during scanning of the cross-section to be solidified first, and a third step in which control data corresponding to the data model generated in the second step are provided for generating a control data set for the additive manufacturing device. a first step of accessing computer-based model
