Background Technology
[0002] With the development of technology and the continuous increase in industrial demand, equipment products face multiple environmental stress threats when serving in natural environments for extended periods, including temperature fluctuations, humidity erosion, and salt spray corrosion. These environmental factors cause the apparent damage (such as corrosion and cracks) and mechanical properties (such as strength and toughness) of equipment to exhibit complex dynamic degradation characteristics. Traditional equipment life assessment methods mainly rely on accelerated life testing and linear degradation models, which are difficult to fully reflect the complex conditions under actual use environments.
[0003] Existing corrosion failure prediction methods have several limitations, such as small sample sizes, insufficient consideration of the complexity of environmental factors, and significant deviations between predicted and actual lifespan results. Furthermore, existing mechanical performance evaluation methods typically do not consider the impact of environmental corrosion on material properties, or analyze only a single influencing factor, making it difficult to comprehensively reflect the interactions among various factors. These methods struggle to accurately predict the actual service life and performance changes of equipment in complex environments, impacting equipment design optimization and maintenance strategy development. Specifically, existing technologies suffer from the following drawbacks: 1) Traditional life assessment methods mainly rely on accelerated life testing and linear degradation models, which are difficult to fully reflect the complex conditions in actual use environments, resulting in a large deviation between the predicted results and the actual results.
[0004] 2) Existing corrosion failure prediction methods have problems such as small sample size and insufficient consideration of the complexity of environmental factors, making it difficult to accurately predict the actual service life of equipment in complex environments.
[0005] 3) Current mechanical property evaluation methods usually do not consider the impact of environmental corrosion on material properties, or only analyze a single influencing factor, making it difficult to fully reflect the interaction of various influencing factors.
[0006] 4) Existing technologies lack a quantitative assessment method for the environmental adaptability of equipment that can comprehensively consider environmental stress, apparent damage and mechanical properties, making it difficult to dynamically describe the adaptive change patterns of equipment in complex environments.
