... are generated in a conductive material by a changing magnetic field. A defect is detected when there is a disruption in the flow of the eddy current. The purpose of this paper is to develop a new noniterative inversion methodology for detecting degradation (defect characterization) such as cracking, corrosion...

... identification, e.g. defects' characterization in tubes is developed. Therefore, the goal of this paper is mainly to investigate the performance of space mapping (SM) method in the new field of ECT type‐NDT. According to our knowledge, this very efficient, acknowledged engineering technique was not up to now...
