“…Models vary from the more simple electrostatic or potential model, based on the Laplace equation and considering only potential gradients in a medium of uniform conductivity, 93,95,[122][123][124][125][126][127][128] to more rigorous treatments contemplating the electrochemical gradients resulting from transport and reaction of chemical species in the solution using the Nernst-Planck equation. 94,96,116,119 With this model, not only current and potential are modelled but also the local chemistry, including the distribution of pH, O 2 and corrosion products. An illustrative example of the application of numerical modeling of SVET results can be given for the cut-edge corrosion presented in Fig.…”
