Phase-field modeling for pH-dependent general and pitting corrosion of iron
Abstract This study proposes a new phase-field (PF) model to simulate the pH-dependent corrosion of iron. The model is formulated based on Bockris’s iron dissolution mechanism to describe the pH dependence of the corrosion rate. We also propose a simulation methodology to incorporate the thermodynam...
