Abstract :
In this paper, the corrosion fatigue crack propagation behavior of aluminum alloy specimens in corrosive solution has been investigated. Based upon the experimental results of corrosion fatigue growth, we proposed the stochastic processes method and the AFGROW software simulation method to predicate the numerical simulation of corrosion fatigue crack growth. The predicted crack growth curves agree well with experimental results.
