Principles of Corrosion Engineering and Corrosion Control

The complete corrosion engineering text, fully course matched, with excellent pedagogic features and real world applications With comprehensive coverage of the principles of corrosion engineering, this is a one-stop text and reference for students and practicing corrosion engineers. Highly illustrated, with worked examples and definitions, it covers basic corrosion principles, and more advanced information for postgraduate students and professionals. Basic principles of electrochemistry and chemical thermodynamics are incorporated to make the book accessible for students and engineers without prior knowledge of this area. Each form of corrosion covered has a definition, description, mechanism, examples and preventative methods, along with case histories of failure. End of chapter questions are accompanied by an online solutions manual. Comprehensively covers the principles of corrosion engineering, methods of corrosion protection, and corrosion processes and control in selected engineering environments Structured for corrosion science and engineering classes at senior undergraduate and graduate level, and an ideal reference for use in professional work Complete with worked examples, extensive end of chapter exercises and accompanying online solutions Dr Zaki Ahmad is Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Saudi Arabia.Ahmad, Zaki is the author of 'Principles of Corrosion Engineering and Corrosion Control', published 2006 under ISBN 9780750659246 and ISBN 0750659246.
