Description

In order to realize advanced nondestructive inspection technique characterized by high sensitivity and high accuracy, a new technique has been developed for detection and characterization of surface cracks in metals, using small loop antenna or dipole antenna. The principle of the new technique is presented. Experiments are performed on detection and characterization of artificial surface cracks on the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials, and a fatigue crack is detected in a 316 stainless steel specimen
