Influence of pitting corrosion on fatigue and corrosion fatigue of ship structures Part I Pitting corrosion of ship structures

Abstract

The present paper is a literature survey focused on a specific kind of corrosion, i.e. pitting corrosion and its influence on fatigue of ship and offshore steels. Mechanisms of a shortand long-term pitting corrosion in marine environment have been described including pit nucleation and growth phases. Some models of pit growth versus time of exposure have been presented. Some factors which influence the pit growth rate have been discussed briefly.

Keywords:

pitting corrosion, ship structures, offshore structures
