The measurement of spontaneous magnetic stray fields of ferromagnetic materials is considered as a new method of non-destructive testing, the Metal Magnetic Memory method. Usually fluxgate sensors with spatial resolution in the order of a few millimeters are used as receivers. This contribution discusses the application of GMR (Giant Magneto Resistance) sensors with a spatial resolution in the micrometer range. Studies reveal that GMR sensors can detect clear demarcated plastic deformations in S235JR steel. Furthermore we present high spatial resolution magnetic measurements of deformation induced martensite formation of AISI 304 metastable austenitic steel for different deformation states.
Evaluation of high spatial resolution imaging of magnetic stray fields for early damage detection
(2016)
Metal magnetic memory (MMM) technique with associated ISO 24497-1:3 is gaining considerable interest in the magnetic NDT community. In contrast to traditional Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) testing, the inspection objects are not intentionally magnetized by an external magnetic field. Due to the physical coupling between mechanical stress and magnetization of ferromagnetic materials, it is assumed that the distribution of the residual MFL correspond to the internal stress of the specimen, or in the most general sense, to a degradation of the material.
Usually, MMM measurements are performed by relatively bulky magnetic inspection sensors. The evaluation of local magnetic field distribution is limited thereby. Highprecision GMR (Giant Magneto Resistance) measurements in the micrometer regime can provide a higher degree of information due to better spatial resolution.
We present a concise summary of studies on the correlation of magnetic structure and microstructure of steels. In particular, we compare residual stress measurements in S235JRC steel welds by means of neutron diffraction with high resolution magnetic field mappings. Results indicate a qualitative correlation between residual stresses and local stray field variation. In addition, stray field measurements of plastically deformed specimens for quasi-static and cyclic loading cases are discussed. The present study concludes that GMR sensors can detect inhomogeneous plastic deformations of S235JR steel in a very early stage, without specific signal processing according to the ISO 24497-1:3.
