This study highlights the analysis of corrosion shape effects under thermo-mechanical loading on the development of damage in corroded and cracked aluminum plates. This study is divided into two parts, the numerical analytical part, was performed to compare the effect of the corrosion geometry on the repair and adhesive damage; We analyzed the effects of damaged areas on the level of corrosion in the adhesive layer of three composite materials (boron/epoxy, glass/epoxy, and graphite/epoxy), and studied the change of the stress intensity factor for circle or square-shaped corrosion. The second part related to an experimental study of the corrosion shape on the ultimate strength of the damaged plate repaired by the boron/epoxy composite material. The results obtained, indicated that the effect of the circular shape of corrosion is small compared to the square shape. The type of composite material (boron / epoxy) has proven its optimal effect on repair.
