Lifetime seismic performance of concrete bridges exposed to corrosion (2014, positive): “The corrosion process causes not only a reduction in the steel mass, but also a loss of ductility of the material that can lead to brittle failures of concrete members (Coronelli & Gambarova, 2004; Stewart, 2009).”
Influence of corrosion on the bond strength of steel rebars in concrete (2016, background): “The relevance of this topic, with reference also to its economical implications, is witnessed by the many theoretical and experimental research projects documented in the literature [1–7].”
Mechanical behaviour of pitting corrosion of flexural and shear reinforcement and its effect on structural reliability of corroding RC beams (2009, background): “, [15–17]).”
Pitting corrosion and structural reliability of corroding RC structures: Experimental data and probabilistic analysis (2008, positive): “While many studies report some reduction of ductility of steel reinforcement due to pitting corrosion [16,20,28], other researchers [4,27] found complete loss of ductility and brittle fracture in corroded reinforcing bars after only a 20% section loss.”
