- Corrosion damage distribution model for low alloy steels is CO2/H2S containing environments
- Pitting a stress corrosion prediction model for stainless steels and CRA’s in CO2/H2S containing environments
- Study of the effect of H2S on the pit growth kinetics and passivity stability in corrosion resistant alloys (CRA)
- Study liquid metal embrittlement (LME) of CRA and High strength Ti by exposure to metallic Hg.
- Research in corrosion mechanisms and mitigation in super critical environments.
