Pulsed magnetic flux leakage techniques for crack detection and characterisation

Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) techniques have been widely used for non-intrusively inspecting steel installations by applying magnetization. In the situations where defects may take place on the near and far surfaces of the structure under inspection, current {MFL} techniques are unable to determine t...
