New findings on the impact of the idealization of corrosion on the brittle failure of steel
Corrosion is mostly considered as homogeneous thickness reduction in construction guidelines of the maritime industry. Several studies concluded that besides a homogeneous thickness reduction the corroded non-uniform surface morphology is affecting the strength and strain behavior of steel. However,...

Corrosion is mostly considered as homogeneous thickness reduction in construction guidelines of the maritime industry. Several studies concluded that besides a homogeneous thickness reduction the corroded non-uniform surface morphology is affecting the strength and strain behavior of steel.

The effects of corrosion on the local behavior of steel structures under tensile loading were investigated by conducting tensile tests on naturally corroded steel specimens and analyzing the surface morphology based on surface scans.
