“…With the interaction of corrosive environment and alternate loads, the anti-fatigue performance of wires is inferior to that in dry air significantly (Thierry Palin-Luc et al., 2010; Yang et al., 2016). Many researchers investigated the mechanism of the corrosion fatigue process from different aspects, such as the corrosion of zinc coating (Kuraoka and Sato, 2009; Ma et al., 2011; Nakamura and Suzumura, 2009), loading (Jiang et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2016; Yang et al., 2017), geometrical features of pits (Almaraz and Mora, 2013; Hao et al., 2010; Nakamura and Suzumura, 2013) and environments (Wu et al., 2017). Nevertheless, since the combined action of corrosive environment and alternate loads is so complex, corrosion fatigue process is still a challenging issue that needs further investigations.…”
