The electric potential drop technique is an effective crack monitoring method, especially in harsh environment conditions. With this method, the calibration curve, the relationship between potential drop across the crack and the crack sizes, is needed. This work applied a cell-centered finite volume discretisation with unstructured quadrilateral mesh to simulate the potential drop within cracked specimens...
