Surface Integrity Inspection on Gears Using Barkhausen Noise Analysis

Surface Layer Analysis after Shot Peening by Barkhausen Noise Signal

In the paper there will be introduced method for relative determination of induced kinetic energy of hardened balls on treated surface, which was invented by J. Alemen. In our experimental work we were focused on measuring Barkhausen noise signals and comparison with microstructure, microhardness, and residual stress analysis of surface roughness. In process of shot peening there is occurrence ...

Bi-axial Stress Effects on Barkhausen-Noise

Mechanical stress has a strong effect on the magnitude of the Barkhausen-noise in structural steels. Because the measurements are performed at the surface of the material, for a sample sheet, the full effect can be described by a biaxial stress field. The measured Barkhausen-noise is dependent on the orientation of the exciting magnetic field relative to the axis of the stress tensor. The sampl...

Barkhausen Noise Modelof Microdefect Characterization

The testing method using Barkhausen noise (B.N) is a particular method, which can be applied on ferromagnetic materials. It is a magnetic non destructive evaluation (NDE) method and can provide very important information about the material microstructure. The work here presented documents the ability to determine the metallurgical state of steel. A new approach is studied of defects; microstruc...

Time-frequency and Time-Scale analysis of Barkhausen noise signals

Carrying out information about the microstructure and stress behaviour of ferromagnetic steels, Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (MBN) has been used as a basis for effective Non Destructive Testing methods, opening new areas in industrial applications. One of the factors that determines the quality and reliability of the MBN analysis is the way information is extracted from the signal. Commonly, simpl...
