Abstract: A nonlinear cumulative evolution model for corrosion fatigue damage was proposed. Corrosion fatigue damage was
considered as a nonlinear cumulative result of stress corrosion damage and fatigue damage. The influences of stress corrosion
damage and fatigue damage on corrosion fatigue damage and damage evolution life were studied from a phenomenological point
of view. The relevant damage parameters were determined by the experimental results of the LY12CZ aluminum alloy, and the
corrosion fatigue life evaluation model based on damage evolution law was established. The corrosion fatigue life predicted by
evaluation model agrees well with the experimental result. The damage evolution model in this study can provide a new method
for theoretical research and life prediction of corrosion fatigue.

1 Introduction
Corrosion fatigue is recognized as one of the
significant degradation mechanisms that affect the
reliability and durability of metal components and
structures (Tang and Li, 2007; Bhuiyan et al., 2008;
Ishihara et al., 2008; Zhao et al., 2012; Huang and
Xu, 2013; Misak et al., 2013). Corrosion fatigue
phenomenon is very common in marine and aerospace engineering, but there are many other issues
which still do not have good solutions to this problem.
With the flourish of damage mechanics (Lemaitre,
1985; Lemaitre and Chaboche, 1990; Fatemi and
Vangt, 1998; Jain and Ghosh, 2008; Besson, 2010;

In the conventional damage theory, time is always used as the reference variable for damage evolution. However, for fatigue caused by cyclic loading,
the damage accumulates with load cycles, so the form
of the fatigue damage evolution equation is often

Since Eqs. (17) and (18) cannot be explicity integrated, the Gaussian integration method is adopted for
computing the corrosion fatigue damage evolution
life (D=0.001). Corrosion fatigue lives based on
damage evolution theory vary with the corrosion
fatigue damage index (Figs. 5 and 6). As can be
seen, the theoretical curve fits quite well with the
experimental data when the damage index valued
0.0002 at 0=220 MPa, and the theoretical one fits
well with the experimental data when valued 0.001
at 0=198 MPa. In short, all the corrosion fatigue
damage parameters can be determined by fitting the
experimental results of the relative materials, and thus
a complete corrosion fatigue life prediction model
based on damage evolution theory is formed.
