The case study presented in this paper is for a 7-story apartment building situated in a beach-front location in Sydney, Australia. The building was constructed circa 1977 and over the years was affected by concrete defects related to chloride ingress from the adjacent sea front.

Cathodic protection systems for reinforced concrete structures have provided long-term corrosion protection to many reinforced concrete structures in Australia over the past 40 years.
In recent years, galvanic-based cathodic protection has become an area of substantial growth due to its simplicity and low monitoring and maintenance requirements.
The lack of independent detailed information related to the costing, performance, advantages, and disadvantages of galvanic-based and impressed current corrosion protection systems has in many cases led to the selection of unsuitable corrosion protection systems, unable to provide long-term cost-effective corrosion protection solutions.
This paper presents performance data from a recently completed major rehabilitation project of a multi-story building in Sydney, Australia, where both impressed current and galvanic cathodic protection systems have been utilized.
This paper outlines the reasons behind the selection process of the corrosion protection systems and presents the performance data of some of the protection systems post-construction.
This paper aims to assist owners in the selection process of the optimum corrosion protection solution for their assets.

Oil and gas production from highly saline reservoirs can present challenges to the completion materials. The most saline fields often require downhole injection of (low chloride) wash water to dilute the produced water and mitigate the threat of halite precipitation on the production tubulars. The present paper investigates the threats associated with the co-mingled wash water and production fluids with respect to common completion materials.

topcoats utilized on the exterior skin of Department of Defense (DoD) aircraft (i.e., fixed and rotary wing) and ground support equipment (GSE) are two-component (2K) polyurethanes (PUs) that are qualified to MIL-PRF-85285 performance requirements. These topcoats are formed from the chemical MARCH reaction of hydroxyl- and isocyanate-functional molecules to generate highly cross-linked polymeric networks that contain carbamate (i.e., urethane) linkages. Formation of these cross-linked networks result in durable coatings with excellent hydrocarbon resistance, mechanical and thermal properties, including resistance to ultraviolet (UV) degradation from sunlight.

Back in 2018, we published a paper on a joint industrial R&D project, during which we performed detailed field measurements on selected pipeline segments in close vicinity to a High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission line during planned staged fault tests on the power line. Induced voltages on these pipelines were recorded during the HVDC staged fault process, which was conducted by the utility company. The measurement results from these tests were used for further validation or modification of an existing industrial guideline that focuses on the influence of HVDC power lines on metallic pipelines. Verification of future modeling results was another expected outcome of this study.
