A Probabilistic Method for Estimating the Influence of Corrosion on the CuAlNi Shape Memory Alloy in Different Marine Environments

This paper gives an approach to the probabilistic percent corrosion depth estimation model for the CuAlNi Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) in different marine environments. Real testing was performed for validation of the theoretical model, where CuAlNi SMAs were exposed to 6 and 12 months in different seawater environments. Focus Ion Beam (FIB) analysis was used to measure the real corrosion depth on the surfaces of tested samples. A statistical approach to the investigation of the corrosion rate of CuAlNi SMA is given, where the corrosion rate is observed as a continuous random variable described by a linear corrosion model, with the assumption that corrosion starts immediately upon alloy surfaces being exposed to the influences of the marine environment. The three best-fitted two-parameter distributions for estimating the cumulative density function and the probability density function of the random variable were obtained by applying adequate statistical tests. Furthermore, using EDX analyses, we identified the chemical composition of the corroded materials, and with the help of Principal Component Analyses, we determined which corrosion environment had the most dominant influence on the corrosion process. The research results indicated that the changeable environment in the tides had a more heterogenic chemical content, which accelerated the corrosion rate.
