Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
Nondestructive testing and imaging plays an important role in many industries, e.g., the monitoring and maintenance of corrosion in aircraft. The general technique is to input energy in some form into an object, observe the object’s response, and from this input-output information determine the internal structure. New techniques are always being explored, and recently there has been much interest in methods that use multiple forms of energy. In this vein, we examine a new technique for imaging corrosion or material loss in an object by combining electrical and thermal measurements on some accessible portion of the object’s outer boundary. The …

The corrosion behavior of power grounding galvanized flat steel was studied by polarization measurement, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and neutral salt spray test in 5% NaCl solutions. The surface morphologies of galvanized coating and structural properties of corrosion products were observed with scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction spectrometer, respectively. Results showed that under the temperatures of 20~60℃, the corrosion currents of galvanized flat steel increased with the temperature rising. The corrosion rate at 60℃ was 0.8408 mA?cm-2, which is 2.9 times larger than that at 20℃. The corrosion rate dropped after reaching the maximal value of 1.95 mg?cm-2?d-1 when the …
