Tempe, Ariz., Sept.10, 2018 - An Arizona State University research team has released new insights about intergranular stress-corrosion cracking (SCC), an environmental cause of premature failure in ...

Ohio State University researchers are finding new insights into how microscopic corrosion attacks an aluminum alloy commonly used in aircraft. They’ve developed a statistical model of the ...

The study of corrosion processes remains pivotal for understanding material degradation in diverse environments. Recent computational approaches, particularly those employing cellular automata ...

Corrosion has existed as long as aircraft. Although it was most likely not on the minds of Wilbur and Orville Wright during their famous 12-second flight, it nonetheless quickly became the archnemesis ...
