Abstract

A finite element/finite difference algorithm is described for modeling the pulsed excitation of a remote field eddy current (RFEC) probe used in steel pipeline inspection. Previous work has largely been concerned with the steady-state AC operation of the probe and physical explanations, based on finite element studies, of the probe's sensitivity to outer wall defects. In the present work, the authors discuss the probe response to a sinusoidal pulse and show that such an excitation mode can also be used for outer wall defect detection.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
