Abstract: Both understanding and simulation of the process of corrosion damage are crucial for the prediction of remaining service life of engineering structures, sound reliability analysis, and design for the purpose of enhancing ...

Abstract: A sizeable number of structures, as key load-bearing components, are currently being made using both high-strength and medium-strength alloys of aluminum. During their service life, these alloys are often exposed to ...

Abstract: This study attempts to provide a theoretical estimate coupled with an analysis of the measured data to predict pitting damage of an aluminum alloy 2219 under the conjoint influence of mechanical load and corrosive environment. ...

Abstract: In this paper, a coating–substrate interfacial corrosion test method was developed to simulate and study the failure processes occurring at the coating interface as a direct consequence of environment-induced degradation ...
