배관은 대형기계설비에서 다양한 작동유체를 운반하는데 사용되는데, 대형시스템의 성능을 유지하기 위해서는 부식된 배관의 잔존 수명을 정확히 예측될 필요가 있다. 하지만, 배관 형상, 물성치, 부식률 등 배관의 수명에 영향을 미치는 요인들의 불확실성이 크기 때문에 부식 잔존 수명을 정확히 예측하기 힘들다. 본 연구에서는 통계적인 접근방법인 베이지안 추론법을 이용하여 부식 잔존 수명을 예측하는 방법을 제안하였다. 여기서, 배관의 파손 확률은 베이지안 법칙을 기반으로 시간에 따른 배관 파손 압력에 관한 사전 정보와 실험데이터를 이용하여 계산되고, 부식 잔존 수명은 10%의 파손 확률을 갖는 경과시간으로 계산되었다. 예제에서는 부식에 영향을 미치는 주요인자로부터 10개와 50개의 데이터를 생성하여 배관의 파손 확률 및 배관의 잔존수명을 예측하였으며 가정한 실제 잔존수명과의 비교를 통해 제안한 방법을 검증하였다.

This paper presents the prediction of remaining service life of the concrete due to steel corrosion caused by the following three cases; carbonation, using sea sand and using deicing salts. The assessment of initiation period was generalized considering the existing perdiction models in the literature, corrosion experiment and field assessment. To evaluate the prediction equation of rust growth, the corrosion accelerating experiments was performed. The polarization resistance was measured by potentiostat and the conversion coefficient of polarzation resistance to corrosion rate was determined by the measurement of real mass loss. Chloride content, carbonation, cover depth, relative humidity, water-cement ratio(W/C), and the use of deicing salts were taken into account and the resulting prediction equation of rust growth was proposed on the basis of these properties. The proposed equation is to predict the rust growth during any specified period of time and be effective in particular for predicting service life of concrete in the case of using sea sand.

Performance-based remaining life assessment of reinforced concrete bridge girders, subject to chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcement, is addressed in this paper. Towards this, a methodology that takes into consideration the human judgmental aspects in expert decision making regarding condition state assessment is proposed. The condition of the bridge girder is specified by the assignment of a condition state from a set of predefined condition states, considering both serviceability- and ultimate- limit states, and, the performance of the bridge girder is described using performability measure. A non-homogeneous Markov chain is used for modelling the stochastic evolution of condition state of the bridge girder with time. The thinking process of the expert in condition state assessment is modelled within a probabilistic framework using Brunswikian theory and probabilistic mental models. The remaining life is determined as the time over which the performance of the girder is above the required performance level. The usefulness of the methodology is illustrated through the remaining life assessment of a reinforced concrete T-beam bridge girder.

A study on the probabilistic methodology for the estimation of the remaining life of Pressurized pipelines containing active corrosion defects is presented. This reliability assessment is earned out using extream value distribution of the corroded defects instead of already published failure perssure moded like NG18 or ASME B31G. The failure probability of pipelines depends on the number of corroded defects. and it could be calculated directly as the area exceeded a defined L V(Limited Value of corrosion depth). The remaining life of pressurized pipelines can also be estimated by the PDF of extream value distribution as calculating the exceeded area with a defined failure probability.

The considerations for remaining life of ACSR (Aluminum Stranded Conductors Steel Reinforced) in transmission lines has become gradually important to hold reliability and stability of power supply. The remaining life of ACSR exposed to the atmosphere for a long period may rely on deterioration caused by environmental indices such as atmospheric corrosion, galvanic corrosion, crevice corrosion and fatigue corrosion. This paper deals with material characteristic of ACSR due to eccentricity at sleeve point. Test samples are ACSR 240[$mm^2$] conductors, which are real transmission lines. As a result, it is obvious that ACSR due to eccentricity may lead to mechanical deterioration.

This study is to investigate on the remaining life of reinforced concrete apartment by using the probability of a reinforcing-steel corrosion and the carbonation tendency of domestic reinforced concrete apartments by using the statistic method. The results are as follow. ·To compare with the carbonation velocity of Kishitani's formula (x=3.727{{{{ SQRT { t} }}) when water-cement ratio is w=0.6, R=1, it is founded out that the carbonation velocity is slow a little in all area investigated and inland area, and fast a bit in coastal area. ·In the influencing factors in regard to the probability of reinforcing-steel corrosion, It seems that the influence of elapsed time is more effective than that of region. Therefore, it is necessary that it makes sure of the cover depth under apartment construction in recent so far as the durability is considered.

Reinforcement corrosion is one of the major problems in the durability of reinforced concrete structures exposed to aggressive environments. Deterioration caused by reinforcement corrosion reduces the durability and the safety margin of concrete structures, causing excessive costs in managing these structures safely. This paper aims to investigate the effects of reinforcement corrosion on the load bearing capacity deterioration of the corroded reinforced concrete structures. A new analytical method is proposed to predict the crack growth of cover concrete and evaluate the residual strength of concrete structures with corroded reinforcement failing in bond. The structural performance indicators, such as concrete crack growth and flexural strength deterioration rate, are assumed to be a stochastic process for lifetime distribution modelling of structural performance deterioration over time during the life cycle. The Weibull life evolution model is employed for analysing lifetime reliability and estimating remaining useful life of the corroded concrete structures. The results for the worked example show that the proposed approach can provide a reliable method for lifetime performance assessment of the corroded reinforced concrete structures.

Residual wall thicknesses, corrosion rates, and residual life of thirty four samples of cast iron pipes(CIPs) and ductile cast iron pipes(DCIPs) collected from water mains of B city were studied to estimate their remaining service life or optimum time of rehabilitation. The internal maximum corrosion depths of samples measured using a dial gauge after shot blasting were twice higher than the external in most cases. Therefore corrosion of water pipes was much more affected by internal water quality than soil. Residual wall thicknesses of DCIPs were higher than those of CIPs. That reason was thought to be that DCIPs have been protected from internal corrosion by lining cement mortar. Residual life calculated by maximum corrosion rate was ranged up to 44 years with 12.40 years average. Since most CIPs were much deteriorated, rehabilitation plan should be established soon in B city. Residual life of DCIP was 33.52 years average. When cement mortar lining is used up by neutralization of DCIPs. DCIP also should be rehabilitated.

In this research the remaining service life of the concrete due to the steel corrosion was predicted by three cases; causing carbonation, using sea sand, using deicing salts. In case of deterioration by carbonation, effective carbonation depth, effective coverage depth and relative humidity are considered for predicting method. In case of using sea sand, predicting method is made of rust growth equation from polarization resistance method. In case of using deicing salts, predicting method is made of transformation of Fick's law. Three methods are very useful in predicting service life of concrete.
