Abstract

The dynamic behavior of a model for the passivation of a metal surface in contact with an aqueous solution is investigated. The model, which is characterized by a three-dimensional state space and five-dimensional parameter space, is obtained by combining elements from passivation models developed by Talbot and Oriani and by Sato. A three-dimensional subspace of parameter space has been studied; the remaining two dimensions are not thought to provide any additional interesting dynamics. The model exhibits remarkably rich dynamics, including the period-doubling, intermittency, and crisis routes to chaos, folds and bubbles in periodic portions of the attractor, and multiple attractors with complex, intertwined basins of attraction.
