We study the initial stage of corrosion-erosion destruction of thermally treated ShKh15 steel in alkaline environments and establish the character of the surface damage in the course of the tests and the laws of its degradation during the incubation period of cavitation. We also develop an automated method for the numerical analysis of the surface cracks, which enables one to give an objective description the degree of surface damage.
