Cathodic protection — sacrificial-anode explorer

DNV-RP-B401 sacrificial-anode design for a fixed offshore structure. Pick a structure and seawater climate, then drag the design life to watch the total anode mass grow — and see how much a better external coating cuts it. Every value is computed live by marine_structure_current_demand (current demand → anode mass → anode count), not mocked.

Total sacrificial-anode mass by external-coating quality (bar = kg of Al-Zn-In anode).
