Electrode array probe designed for visualising and monitoring multiple localised corrosion processes and mechanisms simultaneously occurring on marine structures

An electrode array probe has been specially designed and demonstrated for in situ monitoring and visualising multiple localised corrosion processes and mechanisms, including crevice, weldment and pitting corrosion, occurring simultaneously on marine steel structures. It enabled the probing of time-dependent development of multiple localised corrosion processes, mechanisms and kinetics, thereby facilitating more in-depth understanding of the initiation, propagation and kinetics of localised corrosion of steel marine structures.
