Abstract
This paper primarily discusses the assessment of stray DC and AC-induced corrosion phenomena on steel fibres and the analysis of the main influencing parameters. Instrumental methods in electrochemistry including Tafel polarization, Cyclic Potentiodynamic (CP) polarization and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) were used to assess the corrosion resistance of steel fibres which has great potential to replace conventional steel reinforcement in railway tunnel construction. The analytical model based on electric circuit modelling indicates that concrete containing discrete steel fibres has an inherent corrosion resistance to stray AC interference due to the electrical double layer developed on the surface.
