Pitting is a common type of localized corrosion in passive alloys that can cause rapid failure
of material or equipment. In the case of stainless steels, non-metallic inclusions have been …

A CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) was fabricated by additive manufacturing using
selective laser melting (SLM). The corrosion behavior of the SLM-produced and as-cast …

Corrosion is a major issue for the increase of service life and reliability of metallic materials.
A detailed understanding of the mechanisms of corrosion helps us to solve existing …

The localized chemistry in pits, crevices, and cracks has been studied since the middle of
the 1920's. Galvele introduced a quantitative framework for localized corrosion through his …

Fretting crevice corrosion of total hip joints have been associated with joint replacement
failure. However, researchers have not considered the interaction between fretting corrosion …

A new peridynamic (PD) model for crevice corrosion damage is introduced and cross-
validated with experimental results from the literature. Electrochemical mechanisms are …

The influence of surface topography on corrosion resistance of 21Cr ferritic stainless steel
was studied. The surface topography was modified by changing the grinding conditions …

Stainless steel alloys, including 316L, find use in orthopaedics, commonly as fracture
fixation devices. Invasive procedures involved in the placement of these devices will …

It has been known for many years that highly alloyed stainless steels display a critical pitting
temperature (CPT), which is the lowest temperature at which the growth of stable pits is …

The present research investigates the influence of surface roughness imparted by cold
surface finishing processes on the localized corrosion resistance of stainless steel. Five …
