Presents a comprehensive account of the electrical and magnetic methods of nondestructive testing (NDT). This book begins with a discussion of the requirements for NDT and the criteria for the choice of a given method, followed by a summary of the general theory relating to elect...rical and magnetic testing techniques.

There are two typical transient EM NDT methods, pulsed eddy current (PEC) and transient eddy current thermography (TECT) which are introduced and researched in this book. This book covers the three key areas of theories, methods, and applications: Theory: 1) Multi-physics field i...ncluding eddy current, heat conduction, and Infrared radiation are studied for defect evaluation; 2) Lateral heat conduction is analysed to detect parallel cracks; 3) Longitudinal heat conduction is analysed to detect depth defect, which is beyond skin depth; Methods: 1) Time domain, frequency domain, and logarithm domain are analysed; 2) A-scan , B-scan, and C-scan are introduced and compared; 3) Defect identification, classification, quantification are analysed; 4) Advanced algorithm, principal components analysis (PCA), independent components analysis (ICA) and support vector machine (SVM) are used; 5) Image reconstruction is proposed to improve the detectability. Applications: 1) A lot of experimental studies on multi-layer aluminium structures, honeycomb structure, CFRP in aerospace field, steel and coating in marine field, rail in transportation field are provided; 2) A variety of real damages are evaluated, such as corrosion and blister in steel, stress in aluminium, impact and delamination in CFRP laminates, RCF cracks in rail. * Different from steady NDT testing, transient EM NDT testing is special. Two kinds of transient NDT testing are introduced from theory, methodology to applications.* Theoretically, multi-physics field including eddy current, heat conduction, Infrared radiation are studied for defect evaluation; lateral heat conduction is used to detect parallel cracks; longitudinal heat conduction is used to detect depth defect, which is beyond skin depth;* Methodologically, a lot of methods are analysed. Time domain frequency domain, and logarithm domain are analysed; A-scan , B-scan, and C-scan are introduced and compared; advanced algorithm principal components analysis (P

Barkhausen noise as a tool for nondestructive testing and materials characterization in low carbon steels describes the fundamentals of Barkhausen noise and its potential non-destructive testing and materials characterization applications. Not only does the book discuss fundament...als, it reviews recent discoveries such as the correlation between magnetocrystalline energy and Barkhausen noise, the modelling of this relationship, and the application of this technique in the characterization of magnetic materials. The book presents a balanced approach, reviewing the disadvantages and advantages of using this technique and its comparison over other magnetic testing techniques. Barkhausen noise also looks towards future applications of this technique, in particular its potential industrial application as a method for pipeline inspection, reviewing its current advantages and barriers to implementation. The book is suitable for materials scientists, researchers and engineers and may be applicable for those working in metallurgical plants.

Materials Characterization Using Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) Methods discusses NDT methods and how they are highly desirable for both long-term monitoring and short-term assessment of materials, providing crucial early warning that the fatigue life of a material has elapsed, ...thus helping to prevent service failures. Materials Characterization Using Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) Methods gives an overview of established and new NDT techniques for the characterization of materials, with a focus on materials used in the automotive, aerospace, power plants, and infrastructure construction industries. Each chapter focuses on a different NDT technique and indicates the potential of the method by selected examples of applications. Methods covered include scanning and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray microtomography and diffraction, ultrasonic, electromagnetic, microwave, and hybrid techniques. The authors review both the determination of microstructure properties, including phase content and grain size, and the determination of mechanical properties, such as hardness, toughness, yield strength, texture, and residual stress. * Gives an overview of established and new NDT techniques, including scanning and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray microtomography and diffraction, ultrasonic, electromagnetic, microwave, and hybrid techniques* Reviews the determination of microstructural and mechanical properties* Focuses on materials used in the automotive, aerospace, power plants, and infrastructure construction industries* Serves as a highly desirable resource for both long-term monitoring and short-term assessment of materials
