Rhode Island corrosion expert witnesses analyze material degradation affecting coastal infrastructure, marine vessels, and industrial facilities around Narragansett Bay. They often come from metallurgical engineering, corrosion science, marine engineering, and protective coatings practice, with experience in shipyards, utilities, and public works. They commonly evaluate failure causation, corrosion rates, coating performance, and maintenance standards for metals, concrete, and piping.

This highly qualified engineer's expertise is in metallurgy and corrosion science and engineering. He has extensive experience in litigation and litigation support as well as extensive experience in pro-active client work. He specializes in failure analysis, corrosion failure analysis, material degradation, failure prevention, material selection, material characterization, and laboratory testing. He has conducted research and failure analyses involving uniform corrosion, localized corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, hydrogen embrittlement, fretting corrosion, formicary corrosion, graphitic corrosion, and galvanic corrosion. He has extensive experience solving complex corrosion problems using AC and DC electrochemical techniques, accelerated exposure techniques (environmental exposure and accelerated environments), material characterization techniques (microscopy and elemental analysis), metallographic examination, fractography, on-site investigations, and failure analysis.
