Industry Partners: PRI, Inc.
Objectives:
-
To develop a finite element code for simulating the eddy current MOI inspection geometry
-
To work with the industrial partner in the validation and application of the MOI inspection model for aviation applications
Approach:
- Provide understanding
of effect of layer thickness and air gaps between layers of MOI response
- Use model as experimental
testbed for parametric studies varying bias fields, frequency, excitation
level, industrial foil thickness as function of defect type/size
- Use prediction
of magnetic fields to optimize imaging process
- Validate the model
in cooperation with industry partners
Improvements in Magneto-Optic Imaging film sensors could lead to Probability-of-Detection improvements, which would lead to more imformed design decisions.
Products:
- Calculations in
support of MOI design
