A robust model of material degradation within a corrosive environment

This paper is a proposition of implementation an amendment to the existing classic definition of degradation described the by Kachanov-Robotnov model. The proposed model allows to determine the rate of degradation the material structure in an independent verified corrosive environment and determining the redistribution of three-dimensional stress fields taking into account the progressive degradation. According to that purpose, the computational solid dynamics (CSD) numerical simulation of corrosion degradation performed with the mathematical model which was calibrated on the basis of an experiment has been performed by Mrowiec and Werber
