Review of Recent Models

This section summarizes modeling studies reported since the reviews of Sharland and Turnbull. First, models are discussed which considered the pit surface to be actively dissolving, and did not take into account repassivation of surfaces in the pit. Then, the results of two modeling studies are described which included both dissolution and passivation. We choose to highlight repassivation in this way, since it underlies the important issue of pit stability. All models were based on the dilute solution transport equations in the previous section, except as indicated.
