Abstract/Description

A summary of some pertinent previous research by other authors is presented separately from the actual laboratory report. The report presents the results of air and corrosion fatigue tests which are. interpreted in terms of time to failure, crack growth history, and fracture mechanics techniques. In addition, the results of cathodic protection of corrosion fatigue tests are interpreted in terms of simple-design criteria, as well as relative to Critical Corrosion Rate Theory.

The report presents the results of air and corrosion fatigue tests which are. interpreted in terms of time to failure, crack growth history, and fracture mechanics techniques. In addition, the results of cathodic protection of corrosion fatigue tests are interpreted in terms of simple-design criteria, as well as relative to Critical Corrosion Rate Theory. One of the more significant results presented is the greater longevity of corrosion fatigue, as compared to air fatigue, notched specimens stressed within 10-15 KSI above the air endurance limit. Also, the potential required to cathodically protect such notched specimens is shown to be 50 mV lower than for comparable smooth specimens. Both phenomena are attributed in part to the lowering of crack pH to acidic levels in notched specimens.
