- Studies have shown that the total annual estimated direct cost of corrosion in the USA is a staggering £188.5 billion/year, this is approximately 3.1% of their Gross Domestic Product (GDP) [NACE]. As our environments are constantly changing around strategic engineering structures, enabling users to assess the impact of corrosion within their assets is very important. In this paper, a mathematical model incorporating basic environmental parameters has been developed to predict corrosion failure analysis within high - value-structures. This research attracted collaborative research with Defence Science & Technology Laboratory Ministry of Defence (UK), Analatom (US) and The Tank Museum.
