CRC Press Advanced Modeling Methods for Pitting Corrosion in Metals

This comprehensive reference from CRC Press examines state-of-the-art modeling approaches for understanding and predicting pitting corrosion in metallic materials. Pitting corrosion represents one of the most challenging and costly forms of localised corrosion failure in industrial applications, from aerospace to chemical processing. This specialist text provides engineers, materials scientists and researchers with detailed methodologies for analysing initiation and propagation mechanisms, electrochemical modelling techniques, and computational approaches to predicting corrosion behaviour under service conditions. The book synthesises current research and practical strategies for assessing material durability and extending component lifespan in corrosive environments. Essential for professionals working in materials engineering, failure analysis and corrosion prevention who need rigorous, evidence-based methods for designing more resistant metallic systems.
