What is Reliability-based Reassessment of Corrosion Fatigue Life about?
A reliability-based evaluation approach for pitting corrosion fatigue damage which combines analytical estimation and nondestructive inspection is developed in this paper. First, a mechanics-based probabilistic life model for the corrosion fatigue on the surface of a lap sheet is established and then a reassessment approach is developed after in-service inspection. The reliability of the NDI technique is quanti®ed through a probabilistic description of its detectability and accuracy. The reassessment approach incorporates the reliability of the NDI technique, inspection data and prior prediction in a probabilistic framework for decisions regarding maintenance or repair. The methodology is illustrated through a numerical example and the eect of the reliability of the NDI technique on reassessment results is investigated.
