Mathematical modelling of tidal, splash and coastal atmospheric marine corrosion for structural reliability assessment

该项目处理由于钢腐蚀造成的结构恶化。它是国际结构可靠性研究的前沿，并基于CI以前成功的腐蚀建模研究。它将提供更好的理解潮汐，飞溅和沿海大气腐蚀和新的物理为基础的数学模型，随着时间的推移腐蚀的进展。这些可以为现代基于风险的安全和功能性能评估技术提供投入，以帮助进行具有成本效益的规划，维护和修复决策。该项目对澳大利亚有形资产的设计、维护和修复，包括不断恶化的民用基础设施，具有国家经济影响。

The project deals with structural deterioration due to steel corrosion. It is at the cutting-edge of international structural reliability research and based on the CI's previous successful corrosion modeling research. It will provide improved understanding of tidal, splash and coastal atmospheric corrosion and novel physically-based mathematical models for the progression of corrosion with time. These can provide input for modern risk-based techniques for safety and functional performance assessment to assist with cost-effective planning, maintenance and rehabilitation decisions. The project has national economic implications for the design, maintenance and rehabilitation of Australian physical assets, including deteriorating civil infrastructure.
