W12: Designing Products to Survive Corrosion; Geometry and Materials

An exclamation point iconThis event has already occurred.

In this conference session, we will explore the critical aspects of designing products with enhanced resistance to corrosion. Attendees will gain insights into how the geometry of a product can influence its durability and susceptibility to corrosive environments. We will also examine the selection of materials, emphasizing the importance of choosing the right metals and composites to extend the lifespan of products. Through case studies and practical examples, participants will learn best practices for engineering robust, corrosion-resistant designs that perform reliably in diverse applications.
