A generalized Butler-Volmer relationship for the electrode reaction on the surface of a curved electrode is derived,which takes account of the effects of local stress and the radius of mean curvature. From this relationship, the overpotential is found to be proportional to hydrostatic stress and the activation volume under the condition of open circuit.
