Revisiting exponential stress corrosion model

Isaac Elishakoff and Yohann Miglis

Abstract

One of the prevailing models that describe the stress corrosion is represented by an exponential dependence between rate of corrosion and stress, suggested by Gutman, Zainullin and Zuripov. This study revisits the exponential model and derives analytical expressions for the structures

Key Words

stress corrosion, durability, time to failure, exponential corrosion model
