Experimental observations of stray current effects on steel fibres embedded in mortar

Stray current‐induced corrosion in cathodic protection installations of steel‐reinforced concrete structures: FEM study of the critical parameters

“…The relevance of parameter is plausible and intuitively accessible, as it basically defines the driving force for the stray current flowing through the structure. Therefore, this finding is in a very good agreement with the work of Solgaard et al [ 17 ] who figured out that short steel fibres in a given electric field are less susceptible against stray current corrosion than significantly longer reinforcing steels.…”

“…Stray current effects on steel fibres embedded in mortar were the subject of investigations by Solgaard et al [ 17 ] in 2013. The authors emphasised that the fact of being much shorter than conventional rebars makes steel fibres less susceptible to stray current corrosion.…”

Investigation on corrosion rate and a novel corrosion criterion for gas pipelines affected by dynamic stray current

“…Current pick-up areas of the buried structure will be electrochemically protected, while the current discharge areas can be subjected to corrosion. The significance of the corrosion phenomena depends on the magnitude and duration of the stray current (Bertolini et al, 2007;Solgaard et al, 2013;Nikolakakos, 1998).…”

Enhancing corrosion resistance of reinforced concrete structures with hybrid fiber reinforced concrete

“…Investigation on the effect of steel fiber reinforcement on corrosion has been carried out by [20,21]. A delay in active corrosion in steel fiber reinforced concrete beams compared to plain concrete beams was observed based on macrocell current density measurements [20].…”
