(author), Terryn, H.A. (author)In this work, a new finite element modelling (FEM) approach is followed to model spatiotemporally resolved water uptake in organic coatings. To this aim, we start from a physical model, where not only Fickian diffusion of water is taken into account but also the adsorption/desorption reaction of water on the polymer matrix. Starting from a...journal article 2023

Aghaeian, S. (author), Brouwer, J.C. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Bottger, A.J. (author)Since the oxidation reactions in the process of steel production occur in harsh conditions (i.e., high temperatures and gas atmospheres), it is practically impossible to observe in situ the compositional changes in the steel and the formed oxide scale. Hence, a coupled thermodynamic-kinetic numerical model is developed that predicts the...journal article 2023
