Control by eddy current is one of techniques that’s very used in nondestructive evaluation of materials .These processes find an application significant in the determination of the mechanical and metallurgical parameters of materials. The object of this work is to carry out an analysis of the residual stresses in the material created by external solicitations and analysed by eddy currents as a ...

Since the depth of surface-breaking cracks often determines the remairring life of a part, the characterization of surface-breaking cracks is a key problern in nondestructive evaluation. Eddy currents have been used for this purpose [1]. However, traditional eddy current methods have poor success when the dimensions of the crack are small compared with the inner radius of the eddy current probe...

Although the therapeutic use of pulsed magnetic fields has long been in existence, understanding of its mode of action has been poorly understood. As early as 1940, Nagelshmidt proposed that its action was at the cellular level and this has now been supported by research. It has been shown that damaged cells have a reduced negative charge, with subsequent effect on the flow of ions. This causes...

Eddy current testing is a kind of non-destructive testing (NDT) method based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The probe is the key of eddy current non-destructive inspection and its design or combination of form will influence detectability. A complete set of eddy current testing system is designed for standard testing copper and defect copper. Under the same liftoff distance and ...

The Eddy current technique has been successfully used in a variety of non-destructive evaluation applications including detection of cracks, measurements of material thickness, examining metal thinning, measurements of coating thickness, identification of materials, and detection of corrosion. This paper shows how positional and eddy-current data are combined to produce a C-scan of flaws in con...

Abstrac t – Conductive specimens such as aluminum plates are tested in order to extract information about possible cracks, flaws and other mechanical damages. Nowadays, eddy current testing (ECT) despite its major benefits (e.g. low cost, high checking speed, robustness and high sensitivity to large classes of defects) implies the utilization of fully coil based architecture probes or hybrid co...

A concept for the fabrication of modular micro sensors on flexible substrate materials is presented in this paper. This paper describes the development and fabrication of modular eddy current micro sensors on a 7 μm thick polymer layer. The modular eddy current micro sensors are fabricated on a standard Si wafer due to handling purposes during the sensor fabrication process. Initial investigati...

Testing the structural integrity of pipelines is a crucial maintenance task in oil and gas industry. This could be compromised by corrosions that occur pipeline wall. They cause catastrophic accidents are very hard to detect due presence insulation cladding around pipeline. corrosion manifests as reduction pipe wall thickness, which can detected quantified using Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) state-...

Parametrizations of the subgrid eddy-eddy and eddy-meanfield interactions are developed for the simulation of baroclinic ocean circulations representative of an idealized Antarctic Circumpolar Current. Benchmark simulations are generated using a spectral spherical harmonic quasi-geostrophic model with maximum truncation wavenumber of T=504, which is equivalent to a resolution of 0.24° globally....
