Abstract:
As a consequence of metal fatigue, cracks can develop and grow in operational aircraft. Periodic inspections must be made in order to detect and repair them before they reach a dangerous length. Cracks which grow from holes are a significant problem for aircraft since the wings and fuselage can contain many thousands of fasteners, or rivets. Since it is impractical to remove them all, inspection must be made with them installed. Research into the application of eddy currents to this problem has led to the development of a scanning procedure in which a small coil is moved around the circumferen

Abstract:
Eddy current separation aims to recover non-ferrous metals from non-metals utilizing electromagnetic interactions. In order to describe the separation process, a representative model is needed that can accurately calculate the induced forces. Such a model can be used to optimize the efficiency of current equipment as well as designing ones that can offer new capabilities. Models proposed so far for the separation process, using traditional approaches to calculate forces, had limited success due to complex nature of electromagnetic interactions.

Abstract:
The two-dimensional problem of a long crack in a non-magnetic, half-space conductor lying perpendicular to the flow of eddy-currents induced by a one-dimensional external current sheet is studied in the context of eddy-current non-destructive evaluation. Impedance changes due to closed, surface-breaking cracks and deep, subsurface cracks are calculated. The Wiener-Hopf technique is used to obtain an approximate solution for the magnetic field scattered by a subsurface crack and hence the impedance change. The solution is accurate to within 5% for cracks whose edges lie more than one electromag

The developed method compares with a proposed theory through experimental data. The results from the comparison support the validity of the developed derivations.

Non-destructive evaluation is concerned with the detection and characterisation of flaws. In eddy-current inspection, measurements of the electro-magnetic field are made at the surface of a flawed conductor, in an oscillating electric or magnetic field. The aim of this study is to develop an eddy-current method of imaging flaws based on measurements of the magnetic field data. In the presence of an oscillating current, it is shown that the physical behaviour of a thin crack can be modelled by a layer of electric dipoles.
