The activation of AA6061 Al alloy while coupled with low alloy steel or carbon-carbon composite results in severe corrosion of the former and protection of the latter. Potential drop and E-I kinetics of these couples are nonlinear; hence, the decrease in galvanic current density increases the distance from the “anode…
