A Review of Trends in Corrosion-Resistant Structural Steels Research-From Theoretical Simulation to Data-Driven Directions.

This paper provides a review of models commonly used over the years in the study of microscopic models of material corrosion mechanisms, data mining methods and the corrosion-resistant performance control of structural steels. The virtual process of material corrosion is combined with experimental data to reflect the microscopic mechanism of material corrosion from a nano-scale to macro-scale, respectively. Data mining methods focus on predicting and modeling the corrosion rate and corrosion life of materials. Data-driven control of the corrosion resistance of structural steels is achieved through micro-alloying and organization structure control technology. Corrosion modeling has been used to assess the effects of alloying elements, grain size and organization purity on corrosion resistance, and to determine the contents of alloying elements.
