Abstract

The article provides an overview of the development of magnetic non-destructive testing technologies. After a brief summary of theoretical studies of the effect of magnetic stress coupling, three popular magnetic non-destructive testing technologies based on: detection of the defect scattering field, the Barkhausen effect and magnetic memory of metal are considered. The article considers the physical mechanism and some important experimental results related to the three technologies of non-destructive testing. The problems associated with each method in this area are also summarized.
