The Gordon Research Seminar on Aqueous Corrosion is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.
The GRS on Aqueous Corrosion is ideally suited for young researchers at the level of graduate students from all areas of corrosion science who want to come abreast with the latest developments in the field and discuss their own research projects in a relaxed atmosphere with their peers. The focus of this meeting is on: advances in mathematical modeling of corrosion and protection; understanding and controlling environmentally assisted cracking; degradation and protection of non-metallic materials and coatings; interfaces of corrosion science with other disciplines; and corrosion issues in energy technologies and sustainability.
