A pre-corroded sample tested in air shows the effects of corrosion induced, near surface damage. Pit corrosion and local residual stress are important. · Corrosion in an electrolyte will increase the ...

In extended use on a bike the carbon steel is subject to corrosion and this makes it less desirable for long term use, the corrosion pits acting as stress concentrators that decrease the fatigue ...

A recent article published in npj Materials Degradation explored the defining role of nanoscale heterogeneities in corrosion pathways in a high-strength aluminum alloy via detailed electron ...
