Abstract
Macroscopic defects such as corrosion in nonmagnetic Conductors Under Stress (CUS) are more universal than those within the zero-stress environment, and result in complicated characteristics regarding the electrical properties of the conductors. In this paper, Gradient-field Pulsed Eddy Current technique (GPEC) is intensively investigated for imaging and evaluation of corrosion in CUS. The influence of stress on electrical properties of nonmagnetic CUS with corrosion is analysed via multi-physics simulations and experiments. The correlations between characteristics of corrosion in CUS and the GPEC signal and its features are established and scrutinised. An image processing method reproducing defect images for quantitative assessment of detected corrosion in CUS is proposed.
