sciforum-040824 | Atmospheric corrosion detection of field-exposed metallic materials by image recognition | N/A | N/A |
Show Abstract |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Our group has focused on the filed corrosion detection by using image recognition in the past 30 years. Atmospheric corrosion is accompanied by the changes in surface structure, morphology, and composition. These changes can be recorded by a variety of image acquisition devices that export digital images in grayscale or true color to a detector. Information regarding corrosion type and extent can be extracted with image processing methods. Digital image processing systems used to assess material degradation are briefly illustrated, and the algorithms developed to process metallic materials degradation images are described. Future work that will augment the present methods of evaluating material degradation are discussed. |

sciforum-046176 | Assessment of hydrogen embrittlement and a model for structural integrity analysis | , , , , , , | N/A | N/A |
Show Abstract |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) in a specific sense meaning can be defined as the hydrogen-caused deterioration of the mechanical properties of most metallic materials and alloys. The coexistence of different HE mechanisms and their simultaneous effects in metallic materials, including steels, is still not well documented, while recognition of the dominant mechanism, one or more, is an extremely challenging and crucial problem. A special structural integrity model was proposed [1] for analysis, prevention, and prediction of HE based on the HELP + HEDE model [2] for HE in steels. The structural integrity model corresponds with the observed coexistence of HE mechanisms (HELP + HEDE model) in metals and transition from HELP dominance to HEDE dominance at a hydrogen concentration above the critical hydrogen concentration [2,3]. The further implementation of methods for evaluation, control, and prevention of hydrogen-assisted mechanical degradation processes and HE in metals requires that the variables relevant to the application be incorporated into the basic concept that define all necessary successive steps (5-step approach) for the industrial application [2]. The global 5-step approach in assessment and prevention of hydrogen assisted mechanical degradation processes and hydrogen embrittlement in metals for the practical industrial application was proposed and consist of the following steps [3]: (1) phenomenology analysis of hydrogen-related degradation (multiscale modeling and simulation of HE phenomena); (2) hydrogen sources and entry into metal/component; (3) structural integrity (SiM) model and (4) predictive maintenance (PdM) model which should provide the basis for future (5) reliable and accurate HE damage prediction of different industrial components.

sciforum-046082 | Corrosion of steel in porous media–role of the interfacial zone | N/A | N/A |
Show Abstract |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The mechanism of corrosion of metals embedded in porous media is fundamentally different from corrosion of metals in bulk electrolytes. This difference is related to various aspects, including the heterogeneity found at the interfacial zone where the metal meets the porous medium, in particular the co-existence of different solid, liquid and gas phases at the metal surface. The local conditions of the interfacial zone are thus important to understand and predict corrosion of steel in porous media. This contribution reviews recent advances in the understanding of steel corrosion in porous media commonly found in the engineering context. The focus lies on steel corrosion in concrete, both with respect to localized (chloride-induced) corrosion and corrosion in near-neutral pH conditions that can be found in carbonated concrete. Recent results show that the corrosion process is governed not only by the chemistry of the liquid at the steel surface, but also by chemico-physical processes such as the interrelation of the pore structure and the exposure moisture conditions, determining the amount of liquid retained in the pores at the interfacial zone, and the transport of various species involved in the electrochemical reactions. These findings have implications for the conceptual understanding and for ensuring the durability and the sustainability of civil infrastructures in corrosive environments. |

sciforum-042887 | Predicting environmental ageing of composites: modular approach & multiscale modelling | N/A |
Show Abstract |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fibre-reinforced composite materials are used in structural applications in marine, offshore and oil & gas industries due to their light weight and excellent mechanical properties. However, an exposure of such materials to water leads to environmental ageing, weakening the composite over time. A typical design lifetime of offshore composite structures, being in direct contact with water and humid air, spans 25 years or more. Thus, prediction and modelling of the environmental ageing phenomena becomes highly important, especially for predicting the long-term environmental durability. In this work, a systematic and modular approach for quantitatively modelling such phenomena is provided. The modular methodology presented in this work can and should be further expanded – it is multiscale and scalable. In the state-of-the-art, the degradation framework is not complete, yet it is a systematic step towards the multiscale modelling paradigm for composite materials. The topic of environmental durability of composite materials is being actively developed and is expected to continue growing also in the future. There are 3 constituents in a composite: matrix, fibres and an interphase. Each constituent degrades differently and may also affect the degradation behaviour of each other. Therefore, a modular multiscale approach is preferred. The modules are based on the physics, chemistry of individual constituents’ interaction with the environment, including diffusion, molecular mechanisms and kinetics of environmental ageing. The methodology is seen as a useful approach for both industry and academia, including such use cases as accelerated testing, prediction of lifetime of composite materials and structures, as well as improving understanding of the environmental ageing effects and the time-dependent properties of composites due to environmental ageing. |

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In the last decade, integrated computation of corrosion has made significant progress towards the atomic-scale clarifying of corrosion mechanism and the computer-aided designing of advanced materials with excellent corrosion resistance. This presentation focuses on of theoretical calculation methods and developing tendency in the corrosion study, and three specific applications are presented. First-principle technique combined with molecular dynamics method, peridynamic theory and finite element method provide multiscale models to investigate the micro-mechanism of stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen-induced cracking. The calculation of passivity and passive film breakdown are discoursed elaborately through the point defects diffusion and its correlation of the energy level degeneracy. By surveying the publications, the artificial intelligence technology is pointed out how the computer can pave the way of predicting the corrosion degree as well as designing new corrosion resistant materials. To get better and efficient development of integrated computation of corrosion, extensive cooperation and powerful data infrastructure are needed by stronger joint efforts in the future. |
