Aluminum alloys used for aerospace applications provide good strength to weight ratio at a
reasonable cost but exhibit only limited corrosion resistance. Therefore, a durable and …

Anodizing is a well-documented surface treatment that is inserted in a complex protection
system against corrosion applied to Al alloys. In the scientific literature, there are many …

Nanoscopic characterization of heterogeneous intermetallic particles (IMPs) which
microstructurally and compositionally evolve during local corrosion is crucial in unravelling …

In this paper we introduce a peridynamic model for the evolution of damage from pitting
corrosion capable of capturing subsurface damage. We model the anodic reaction in …

Dealloying is involved in materials science responsible for fabrication of nanoscale
structures beneficially but for corrosion degradations detrimentally. Detailed understanding …

The present study comprises the comparison of the electrochemical behavior of friction stir
weld (FSW) joint and tungsten inert gas (TIG) weld joint of AA2014 using immersion test …

A hyphenated optical-electrochemical technique and image analysis protocol is used to
quantify global and local (intermetallic) corrosion process and kinetics. Our findings reveal …

Friction stir process (FSP) was conducted in both air and water on aluminium alloy AA7075,
with the latter environment providing the smallest grain size and a higher surface copper …

Inhibitor leaching, fast, effective and irreversible passivation are essential for active
protective coatings to protect aluminium alloys. This study presents the comparison of the …

Aluminium alloy 2024-T351 was examined using a range of electron microscope techniques
at the early stages of attack after immersion in 0.1 M NaCl aqueous solution. At attack sites …
