Verification, validation, and parameter study of a computational model for corrosion pit growth adopting the level-set method. Part II: Stress corrosion
article
Structural components in corrosive environments such as pipelines, bridges, aircrafts, and turbines are imposed
to stress corrosion. A stress corrosion model for pit growth should a) accurately consider the electrochemistry of
the corrosion process, b) properly deal with the moving interface between solid and electrolyte, and c) effectively
incorporates the synergism between corrosion and mechanical field at the interface. In Part II, the influence of
mechanical loading is added to the approach described in Part I. Part II investigates the model’s capabilities of
simulating stress corrosion via a set of numerical examples of corrosion pitting which include experimental
validation and uncertainty quantification of model parameters and properties.
