Numerical simulations of corrosion processes. Properties of the corrosion front and formation of islands

Using a one-parameter model and a cellular automaton description we investigate the formation of a cavity in a material for which a small area has been deprotected and put in contact with an aggressive environment. Corrosion processes take place in a medium where the diffusion is assumed to be very...
