Corrosion is a degrading material process frequently encountered in
engineering structures and components, which may lead to costly and
catastrophic failures if not properly and timely addressed. This
volume describes a wide spectrum of experimental and analytical
studies, which provide a fairly comprehensive account of corrosion
manifestations and methodologies for addressing them in structural
and industrial design. As such, it is expected to make a valuable
reference publication for engineers and scientists interested in
the protection of structures and components from harmful and
potentially ruinous corrosive action.The collected articles
comprising this volume address issues which can be categorised into
two main areas. The first is concerned with material science
approaches to corrosion, that is, visual or instrumental means of
assessing existing behaviour or effectiveness of corrective
measures and techniques. The second part of the volume comprises
boundary element simulations of cathodic protection schemes for the
purpose of predicting and optimising their performance.A number of
practical problems are analysed such as: the coating condition on a
ballast tank wall; the impressed current cathodic protection of an
offshore platform and minimizing a ship's electric and magnetic
signature. Topics covered include: Elemental identification;
Material loss; Strain fields; Stress corrosion cracking; Corrosion
resistance; Fretting corrosion; Contact surface damage;
Electrochemical testing; Coating conditions; Cathodic protection;
Current density distribution; Pipelines and deep well casings;
Electric and magnetic signatures; Coating damage effects; Galvanic
corrosion.
