This paper reports the studies on the wear-corrosion behavior of ductile cast iron in the various pH environments. In the variety of pH solutions, corrosion and wear-corrosion loss of GCD 600 were investigated. Also, the anodic polarization test of GCD 600 using potentiostat/galvanostat was carried out. And rubbed surface of GCD 60 using scanning electron micrographs after immersion and wear-corrosion test was examined in the environment of various pH values. The main results are as following In alkali zone, the wear-corrosion loss of GCD 600 increases, but corrosion loss decreases. The unevenness and crack of wear-corrosion surface in neutral zone becomes duller than that in alkali zone. As the corrosive environment is acidified, wear-corrosion behavior of GCD 600 with passing immersion time becomes sensitive.

This research aims to study an effect of sodium chloride solution concentration on the corrosion rate of AA1100 aluminium alloy and SGACD zinc coated steel lap joint with a test duration of 30 days and a test temperature of $45^{\circ}$. The summarized results are as follows. Increase of the NaCl solution concentration increased the weight loss of Al, corrosion rate of Al, weight loss of Fe and also decreased the corrosion rate of Fe. Increase of the test duration affected to increase the weight loss and corrosion rate of Al and also decrease the weight loss and corrosion rate of Fe. The corrosion that was formed in a lap joint consisted of the uniform corrosion on the surface of the metals and the galvanic corrosion in the lap area of the joint. The maximum weight loss of AA 1100 aluminium and SGACD zinc coated steel that was occurred in the sodium chloride with 3.25% was 2.203% and 3.208%, respectively.. The maximum corrosion rate of AA 1100 aluminium and SGACD zinc coated steel that was occurred in 4.00% and 3.5% sodium chloride solution was 0.156 mm/year and 0.479 mm/year, respectively.

The component parts of the shell plate of a ship are steel. but the screw propeller or the bow thruster is a compound of bronze, nickel and aluminum. On account of the these different components between metals of the shell plate, the screw propeller and the bow thruster, which are underwater, the shell plate of a ship is corroded by the action of ionization. Authors investigated the corrosion loss of the zinc anodes which were attached to the bottom shell of the training ship Kaya for about two years. The obtained results were as follows:1. In case of the shell plate the difference of the corrosion loss according to port and starboard was almost nothing. But the corrosion loss of the forward part was more than that of the aftward part.2. There was little difference in the corrosion loss between the forward and the aftward part on the bilge keel.3. The corrosion loss of the fore, midship and aft part on the false keel were 24.7%, 22.4% and 23.9% respectively.4. The corrosion loss of the fore and the aft part on the false keel was more than that of the midship part.5. The corrosion loss of the bow thruster was greater than any other parts.6. The nearer the zinc anode to the screw propeller the more the corrosion loss on the stern frame, and the situation was also same as on the rudder.

Rebar corrosion in concrete is one of the main causes of reduction of service life of reinforced concrete buildings. This paper presents the influence of rebar corrosion on the structural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings subjected to strong earthquake ground motion. Different levels of rebar corrosion scenarios were applied on a typical four story RC frame. The deteriorated conditions as a result of these scenarios include loss in cross-sectional area and loss of mechanical properties of the reinforcement bars, loss in bond strength, and loss in concrete strength and its modulus of elasticity. Dynamic analyses of the frame with different corrosion scenarios are performed with selected strong earthquake ground motion records. The influences of degradation in both concrete and reinforcement on structural behavior are investigated by comparing the various parameters of the frame under different corrosion scenarios with respect to each other. The results show that the progressive deterioration of the frame due to rebar corrosion causes serious structural behavior changes such as change in failure mode. The intensity, propagation time, and extensity of rebar corrosion have very important effects on the level of degradation of steel and concrete, as well as on the earthquake behavior of the structure.

Corrosion loss of the shell plates of the steel vessels are measured and analyzed on the thirty cargo vessels and fifteen lumber carriers of which nationality belong to Korea. Thickness of the shell plates were determined at the every observed points set along the fore and aft line and perpendicular to it, by use of the ultrasonic thickness meter. Difference of the thickness between the original and the determined shell plates are given as the corrosion loss at the present age. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. On the cargo vessels, (1) The total mean of the corrosion loss is greatest at the light waterline, in every age class of the vessels. (2) The total mean of the corrosion loss on the fore and aft line shows little difference, even though it is slightly greater at the fore part, in every age class of the vessels. (3) Corrosion loss along the perpendicular line grows greater in the order of freeboard, load waterline, upper bilge line and light waterline, within the 16 of the age of the observed vessels. Its order varies to freeboard, upper bilge line, load waterline and light waterline in the age of 35. Corrosion loss at the light waterline and load waterline, in the age of 35, shows 3 times of it at the freeboard, and it at the upper bildge line shows twice of it at the freeboard. The fact significates the corrosion grows rapidly around the waterline. 2. On the lumber carriers, (1) The total mean of the corrosion loss is greatest at the upper bilge line, in the every age class of the vessels. (2) Total mean of the corrosion loss on the fore and aft line shows little difference, even though it is slightly greater at the fore part, in every age class of the vessels. (3) Corrosion loss along the perpendicular line is least at the freeboard and greatest at the upper bilge line, and its value at the upper bilge line shows twice of it at the freeboard. 3. The total mean of the corrosion loss of the lumber carriers shows almost twice of the cargo vessels.

This paper reports the studies on the wear-corrosion behavior of Al-Mg alloy in various pH environments. In various pH of sea water, corrosion and wear-corrosion loss of Al-Mg alloy were investigated. Also, the polarization test of Al-Mg alloy using potentiostat/galvanostat was carried out. And the rubbed surface of Al-Mg alloy using scanning electron micrographs after wear-corrosion test was examined in various pH values of sea water. The main results are as following : The polarization resistance of Al-Mg alloy in pH 4 solution is higer than that in pH 6.7 solution, and the corrosion current density in pH 4 is controlled than in pH 6.7 solution. The wear-corrosion loss of Al-Mg alloy with lowering pH becomes sensitive. As the oxide product of Al-Mg alloy appears granular structure and exholiation phenomenon, wear-corrosion loss of Al-Mg alloy increases.

Corrosion and lassitude are very important in the metal construction Currently, the shot peening is used much for removing the defect on the surface, improving the fatigue strength on surface. In this study. the influence of shot peening to the corrosion property were investigated in 3.5% NaCl, 10% HNO3 + 3% HF. 6% FeC13. The immersion test was performed on two kind of specimen(Removed corrosion product. RCP and Continuous immersed specimen: CIS). The immersion periods was 3600hours. Corrosion potential. weight loss, and fatigue crack growth characteristics were investigated. The result, shot peening in corrosion potential showed stable potential. Also, shot peening displayed small Weight loss than un peening. And Fatigue crack resistivity of shot peening in corrosion solution's fatigue crack appeared greatly than un peening.
