Defect detection in ferromagnetic substrates is often hampered by nonmagnetic coating
thickness variation when using conventional eddy current testing technique. The lift-off distance …

For the electromagnetic eddy current (EC) testing, various methods have been proposed for
reducing the lift-off error on the measurement of samples. In this article, instead of …

A piezoelectric linear array structure has been designed to operate at temperatures up to
400/spl deg/C for nondestructive testing of steel components of a hot industrial plant. It is …

This paper describes the measurement of lubricant-film thickness in a rolling element bearing
using a piezoelectric thin film transducer to excite and receive ultrasonic signals. High …

AlN thin film ultrasonic transducers are being developed for non-destructive testing (NDT)
applications in detection and monitoring in a high temperature environment. The ultrasonic …

A flexible and low profile ultrasonic transducer was fabricated for non-destructive testing (NDT)
applications by DC sputtering of 3 μm thick, c-axis oriented, ZnO film on 50 μm aluminium …

This paper presents some of the recent experimental work on developing AlN ultrasonic
transducers for high-temperature NDT applications. C-axis oriented AlN films were grown on …

We report on a new "net-shape" processing method for the fabrication of ultrafine scale 1-3
ceramic structures. We have used viscous polymer processing (VPP), combined with a …

The Gilbert equation of motion is solved for magnetic nano-elements of arbitrary shape
using a hybrid finite element/boundary element method. NiFe elements show small scale …

… When accused of adultery before the Trinity College (Edinburgh) kirk session, Katherine
Pearson protested that her husband was dead and that she was only guilty of fornication. She …
