Abstract
In present paper, a novel, effective and economical model based on corrosion kinetics and equivalent initial flaw size theory was proposed to predict the corrosion fatigue crack initiation (CFCI) life of E690 steel in simulated seawater. Comparison between the predicted S-N curves and the measured data showed that this model was of nice accuracy under high peak stresses, while non-negligible deviation existed under low peak stresses due to lack of enough measured data or consideration for the stress effect on corrosion rate. Despite of that, thought of this model still has a good practicability in predicting CFCI life of steels.
