Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation
Center for Nondestructive Evaluation

Begun in 1973, the Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation (QNDE) is the premier international NDE meeting designed to provide an interface between research and early engineering through the presentation of current ideas and results focused on facilitating a rapid transfer to engineering development.

This site provides free, public access to papers presented at the annual QNDE conference between 1983 and 1999, and abstracts for papers presented at the conference since 2001.

Abstract

I think I should thank George Matzkanin for starting everyone thinking in terms of magnetic phenomena. Yesterday we heard three papers describing the performance of electromagnetic transducers on nonmagnetic materials. The question was asked at the close of one, "Do these transducers work on ferrous materials?" The answer that I will give you is, "Yes, they do, and furthermore, the efficiency of the operation is directly related to the stress within the material." The mechanism of this relationship is very similar to the mechanism of the stress dependence of the Barkhausen effect. However, the information gained is distinct and complimentary.
