I find quite remarkable how the combination of electro-chemo-mechanics modelling and phase field approaches has enable to develop mechanistic models for the longstanding problem of corrosion. The following paper summarises recent developments in this emerging field: https://doi.org/10.1557/s43577-024-00715-8
