The corrosion of structures is needed to be identified early to prevent any severe damage of buildings. The conventional technique such as potential mapping for diagnosing of reinforced concrete corrosion has been used widely in the field. However, the method has limitation such as less accuracy, laborious and time-consuming. This study is conducted to develop boundary element method 3 dimensions by considering polarization curves of anode and cathode for corrosion simulation and analyzed the influences of anode profiles for RC corrosion simulation. In this method, the potential in concrete domain was modeled by Laplace’s equation. The anode and cathode areas were represented by each polarization curves. The numerical simulation result shows that the boundary element method 3 dimensions successfully solved the Laplace’s equation in order to simulate corrosion phenomenon of reinforced concrete. The influences of anode profiles for RC corrosion simulation have been analyzed. Further works are needed to reduce the computational effort of corrosion simulation.

One new, so-called hybrid boundary element method (HBEM) is presented in this paper. It is a recently proposed numerical method for stationary and quasi-stationary EM field analysis. The method application is illustrated on the example of solving the problem of modelling hemispherical ground inhomogeneity influence on grounding system. The applied procedure also includes using of quasi-stationary image-theory. The obtained results are compared with those ones based on using the Green?s function for the point source inside semi-spherical inhomogeneities as well as with the results obtained by applying COMSOL program package.
