Abstract: One of the prevailing models that describe the stress corrosion is represented by an exponential dependence between rate of corrosion and stress, suggested by Gutman, Zainullin, and Zuripov. This study revisits the exponential model and derives analytical expressions for the structures’ durability, which is postulated as the time for stress level to reach its yield value. Comparison is conducted with other possible models, namely with linear, quadratic, or cubic cases.
