Abstract
Purpose
As a common form of failure in industry, corrosion causes huge economic losses. At present, with the development of computational techniques, artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a more and more important role in the field of scientific research. This paper aims to review the application of AI in corrosion protection research.
Design/methodology/approach
In this paper, the role of AI in corrosion protection is systematically described in terms of anticorrosion materials and methods, corrosion image recognition and corrosion life prediction.
Findings
With efficient and in-depth data processing methods, AI can rapidly advance the research process in terms of anticorrosion materials and methods, corrosion image recognition and corrosion life prediction and save on costs.
Originality/value
This paper summarizes the application of AI in corrosion protection research and provides the basis for corrosion engineers to quickly and comprehensively understand the role of AI and improve production processes.
