This fully revised and thoroughly updated new edition of Electrical and Magnetic Methods of Non-destructive Testing provides a comprehensive account of the subject. The requirements for non-destructive testing are debated along with the criteria for the choice of a given method. This is followed by a summary of the general theory relating to electrical and magnetic testing techniques and a discussion of specific methods. New features of this edition include: coverage of recent developments in magnetic methods of testing, such as SQUID magnetometry and Barkhausen emission testing; a new chapter exploring the latest developments in eddy current testing such as improvements in probe design, the use of neural networks and defect imaging, especially with the use of magneto-optic method (MOI); a more detailed discussion of RADAR and potential drop methods of testing, especially of concrete structures. Electrical and Magnetic Methods of Non-destructive Testing will be of great value to any engineer, scientist or postgraduate student working in this field.
