This paper describes a new compound magnetic testing system using magnetic Barkhausen Noise (BN) and Metal Magnetic Memory (MMM) testing technique for stress measurement. BN has become an important nondestructive technique due to its exceptional material and stress characterization capabilities. MMM is recently developed technique with special ability for defect detection, stress detection and stress history record capacity. In the applied tensile experiment, BN and MMM signal were acquired via BN measurement system and EMS-2003 MMM instrument. Relationships between magnetic signals and applied tensile stresses were derived from experiment results. The correlation of the two methods was investigated. Conclusions were derived based on the experiment results. Further research directions were also highlighted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
