Abstract:Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) sometimes occurs in stainless steels, which are used for steam turbines of geothermal power plants. In order to prevent SCC that causes serious accidents in the plants, understanding the SCC behavior through experiments and numerical simulations is essential. Phase-field (PF) method is one of the widely used numerical simulation methods to analyze various microscale-material phenomena including electrochemical reactions such as corrosion. In this study, we have developed a new P… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
