Continuous Scanning Technique with Barkhausen Magnetic Noise for Carbon Steel Sheets

This work studies the application of a Non-Destructive Inspection Technique (NDIT), based on the Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (MBN), for the detection of non-homogeneous regions in carbon steel plates. It presents the advances in the development of a variant of a new non-destructive magnetic test technique, called Continuous Scanning Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (CSMBN). The non-homogeneous or damaged regions were produced by plastic deformations in rolled and annealed sheets of SAE 1060 and 1070 steels. MBN is generated by abrupt changes in the magnetization of materials when subjected to alteratio...
