Simulation for Predicting Atmospheric Corrosion of Carbon Steel
Abstract
Material degradation due to atmospheric corrosion is one of the serious problems for large structures located in coastal areas, such as bridges and chemical plants. We have developed a model for predicting the amount of atmospheric corrosion that takes into account important factors affecting atmospheric corrosion, and is contributing to diagnostics to ensure the integrity of infrastructure structures. This is a spin-off research derived from nuclear materials research.
