Fig. 3: Growth trends for two typical pits.
From: Pit growth kinetics in aluminum: effects of salt loading and relative humidity
Plots of pit volume as a function of time elapsed after nucleation are provided for two typical pits in (a) and (b). Insets show tomographs of these pits. 3D renderings and 2D tomographs of the pit shown in (a) at the points highlighted with yellow are provided in (c–h) and (i–k), respectively. In (c–h) the droplet is colored blue, the surface of the wire is colored gray, yellow indicates new growth relative to the previous time step and black represents growth at the prior time step. (g) shows a top-down view of the pit. (h) and (i) show cross-sections of the pit along the axes shown in (g). Error bars represent absolute error in pit volume measurement.
