Modified AC Magnetic Bridge Scanning Patterns of Samples Simulating Flaws in Aircraft Seams

  • Chapter
Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation

Abstract

Hidden corrosion in the seams or below the skin of an aluminum aircraft results in the loss of material and therefore affects the net conductance as measured at the seam or skin surface. This loss of conductance has been detected through the use of electromagnetic techniques, for example, eddy-current techniques [1].
