The 13-year service life of the elbow made it difficult, if not impossible, to determine the order of the corrosion mechanisms or the length of time it took to reach the present state of degradation after the initiation of corrosion. Based on the long service life the present material has given...

For example, a wire rope for an elevator has lost its service life when it has sustained fatigue fractures of some of the individual wires, due to irregularities in the wrapping over the sheave. Even though the wire rope continues to function, the presence of fatigue fractures...
