Description
WIT Press Modelling of Cathodic Protection Systems 2005 Edition by R. a. Adey
The field of Corrosion Modelling has evolved tremendously since the first work was published in the early 1980's. Its initial application in the offshore industry has expanded to the point where modelling is applied in practically all application areas and the software has been developed to fulfil these needs. This book presents contributions from the most influential researchers and developers of corrosion modelling tools and users who apply the technology in their industry. Providing an excellent introduction to the state-of-the-art in computer modelling of corrosion and related electrochemical processes, this book will be of value to corrosion engineers and physicists, model developers and researchers. Table of Contents : Chapter 1: Mathematical modeling for corrosion analysis Chapter 2: Shipboard impressed current cathodic protection system (ICCP) analysis Chapter 3: Simulating the transient response of ICCP control systems Chapter 4: Boundary element modelling of complex multi-hull surfaces of hypothetical future warships Chapter 5: Joint optimisation of corrosion protection and electric signature of a naval platform Chapter 6: Optimisation of cathodic protection systems Chapter 7: Coating prediction from reference cells measurement and eventual assistance of the UEP Chapter 8: Numerical simulation of the cathodic protection of pipeline networks under various stray current interfaces Chapter 9: Modelling coating flaws with non-linear polarization curves for long pipelines
