SUMMARY:CorroZoom David Shoesmith: Corrosion Processes Under High-Level Nuclear Waste Disposal Conditions
DESCRIPTION:To register (free for all):\nhttps://osu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ZAeUXHD7RCKDy_SFgR5zbw \nCorrosion Processes Under High-Level Nuclear Waste Disposal Conditions\nProf. David Shoesmith\nUniversity of Western Ontario \nAbstract\nThe planned deep geologic repositories (DGR) for high level nuclear waste (nuclear fuel) will consist of a sequence of geological and engineered barriers whose long-term performance must be demonstrated by the development of robust assessment models. These models must be based on a thorough understanding of the performance of a wide range of materials. The greatest threat to both the fuel (uranium dioxide inside a Zr alloy cladding) and the primary engineered barrier (a Cu-coated or Cu-shielded steel container) will be corrosion in the range of exposure environments which will exist as DGR conditions evolve with time. This presentation will concentrate on a range of possible corrosion processes: (i) Cu corrosion in the presence of microbially generated sulfide under both oxic and anoxic conditions; (ii) galvanic coupling between Cu and carbon steel; (iii) the mechanism and consequences of hydrogen absorption by Zr alloys and how it differs from absorption by titanium alloys; (iv) the influence of water radiolysis products (mainly H2O2 and H2) and radioactive fission product-doping on uranium dioxide dissolution. Besides studies using standard electrochemical and surface analytical measurements\, the application of a range of additional techniques will be described. These include scanning electrochemical microscopy\, neutron reflectometry coupled with electrochemical methods\, confocal laser scanning microscopy\, and X-ray microcomputed tomography. \nBio\nDavid Shoesmith is an emeritus professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Western Ontario (UWO\, London\, Canada) and the previous director of Surface Science Western (https://www.surfacesciencewestern.com/). He received a Ph.D. in electrochemistry from the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne (UK) and was a research scientist with Atomic Energy of Canada prior to joining UWO. He is an elected Fellow of the Canadian Royal Society\, and has received a number of national and international awards. His research has been focused on the application of electrochemical and surface analytical techniques\, oxide and sulfide film properties\, microscopic examination of the evolution and spatial distribution of corrosion damage on a wide range of materials including copper\, titanium and nickel alloys\, uranium dioxide\, and carbon steels\, and on the development of computational models for corrosion processes. A major emphasis has been on corrosion processes anticipated within high-level nuclear waste repositories with funding\, at various times\, from the relevant organizations in Canada\, Sweden\, the United States\, and Switzerland. He has served on scientific and review boards for these\, and other\, countries.

SUMMARY:CorroZoom webinar: Corrosion Protection in Deep Sea Environments
DESCRIPTION:The next CorroZoom webinar will be on 20 May and will be given by Prof. Li Liu from Northeastern University in Shenyang\, China. The talk is entitled “Corrosion Protection in Deep Sea Environments.” She has found some really interesting corrosion behavior in the deep sea environment. Please register and attend if you are interested by clicking here. \nCorrosion Protection in Deep Sea Environments \nBy Li Liu\, Northeastern University\, China \nAbstract\nThe deep sea\, defined as ocean regions exceeding depths of 200 meters\, covers approximately 60% of the Earth’s surface and has become a critical frontier for scientific exploration and resource extraction. Unlike shallow waters\, the deep-sea environment presents a unique set of challenges characterized by extreme hydrostatic pressure\, low temperature\, depleted dissolved oxygen level\, and darkness. These factors lead to distinct corrosion failure behaviors in structural metals and coatings compared to those observed in surface environments. This presentation synthesizes over a decade of research into the corrosion mechanisms of key structural materials\, including high-strength low-alloy steels\, copper alloys\, and titanium alloys\, as well as the degradation of protective organic coatings. A central finding of this work is that\, at the same temperature and oxygen contents\, hydrostatic pressure significantly accelerates metal corrosion\, regardless of whether the material undergoes active dissolution or passivation. We found that hydrostatic pressure may thin the Helmholtz layer of the electrochemical reaction\, which is a key factor in enhanced metal dissolution rates under extreme hydrostatic pressure. Furthermore\, high hydrostatic pressure increases the stress corrosion cracking sensitivity and reduces the fatigue life of titanium alloys. The synergistic effect of hydrostatic pressure and cyclic loading disrupts the density and uniformity of passive films\, facilitating penetration of corrosive media and promoting crack initiation. A novel deep-sea passivation protective coating has been developed to combat these challenges and enhance the stability of titanium alloys in the harsh deep-sea environment. \nBio\nLi Liu is a Professor at the Corrosion Protection Center and the National Key Laboratory of Digital Steel at Northeastern University (NEU)\, China. She earned her Ph.D. in 2007 at the State Key Laboratory for Metal Corrosion and Protection at the Institute of Metal Research (IMR)\, Chinese Academy of Sciences and subsequently spent over a decade working there before joining NEU in 2018. Professor Liu’s research is dedicated to understanding and mitigating metal corrosion in extreme and harsh marine environments\, with a primary focus on deep-sea conditions\, high-temperature marine interfaces\, and island-based infrastructure. Her work bridges fundamental electrochemistry with practical materials engineering\, contributing significantly to the durability of assets in the world’s most challenging aquatic frontiers. She has published over 130 papers with ~6\,000 citations and an h-index of 47 (Jan 2025).

SUMMARY:CorroZoom webinar 23.6.2026 Opportunities for Quantum Computing in Corrosion Science
DESCRIPTION:The next CorroZoom webinar will be on 23 June and will be given by Dr. Kristen Williams from Boeing Corporation. The talk is entitled “Opportunities for Quantum Computing in Corrosion Science.” The power of quantum computing allows for modeling at the electron level\, which is required for accurate first-principles corrosion rate prediction. Please register here. \nOpportunities for Quantum Computing in Corrosion Science \nKristen Williams\, Boeing Corp. \nAbstract\nModeling corrosion reactions at the atomistic length scale requires ‘first principles’ calculations to extract thermodynamic and kinetic properties of different reaction pathways. These calculations can then be used to characterize the fundamental corrosion processes happening at a material-environment interface. First principles approaches are especially useful in material design and selection because corrosion processes (e.g.\, metal dissolution) often involve highly-correlated electronic states. Despite their usefulness\, however\, first principles approaches have a major limitation related to computational scaling. These methods require solving the many-electron time-independent Schrödinger equation\, an eigenvalue problem that describes the electronic structure (energies and eigenstates) of a many-body fermionic system. Even with supercomputing resources\, first principles calculations for systems with more than a few electrons are computationally prohibitive. To address this\, many researchers use approximate methods such as Density Functional Theory (DFT). DFT has been used extensively to study corrosion mechanisms\, but DFT has known limitations for predicting accurate kinetics. It has recently been proposed that quantum algorithms can compute more accurate chemical kinetics for larger-scale models. Quantum algorithms are designed to run on quantum computers\, novel computing architectures that take advantage of the unique properties of superposition and entanglement to carry out complex calculations that are not feasible on traditional processers. The application of quantum algorithms to the study of chemical reactions is a new and exciting area of research. This presentation will provide an introduction to quantum computing in a way that connects to the fundamentals of corrosion science and engineering. This presentation will also review some preliminary studies of corrosion reactions using quantum computers and will outline opportunities for further research. \nBio\nDr. Kristen S. Williams (Kris) is an Associate Technical Fellow and Boeing Designated Expert in Corrosion. She is a member of the Boeing Quantum Computing Applications Team and recently led the Boeing Applied Math Computational Methods group. Prior to that\, she served as a Technical Lead Engineer in the Space Launch System Materials & Processes Design Team\, Senior Engineer and Principal Investigator for multiple research projects. Before joining Boeing\, she worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory in Aberdeen Proving Ground\, MD. Kris earned a Ph.D. in Materials Science & Engineering from Texas A&M University and a B.S. in Chemistry\, with minors in Physics and Mathematics\, from Jacksonville State University. Kris is a member of the Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) and has served on the AMPP Research Committee. She has published over thirty peer-reviewed journal articles\, conference proceedings\, and patents related to computational materials modeling\, corrosion\, surface science\, and polymeric materials. Outside of work\, she enjoys traveling\, watching college football\, and training her two Australian shepherds.
