Severe local attack, such as pitting, (see figure 1) and crevice corrosion, can be a significant problem in stainless steels and other alloys that depend on self-healing, which can only occur when ...

New deterministic and stochastic models can perdict the evolution of pitting corrosion depth and rate distributions from observed soil properties. Researchers performed a total of 259 excavations in 3 ...

Laboratory experiments and observation of pit growth rates in six operating fields have led to development of a model to predict internal pitting corrosion of oil and gas pipelines. Laboratory ...

In this article we develop statistical extreme-value theory as a method to validate and improve experiments with extremal responses, and to extrapolate and compare results. Our main motivation is ...

A process which involves deterioration or degradation of metal is referred to as corrosion. The most typical example of corrosion is the degradation of alloys or metals. Usually, corrosion phenomena ...
