However, due to correlation between the response signals, it might be necessary to consider multiple flaw response signals simultaneously. Hence, in this work, we demonstrate the possibility of including multiple correlated flaw signals, features, towards the construction of a PoD curve. The flaw features considered are the 3 components of the magnetic flux density. This is a simulation based PoD estimation for a narrow opening notch type flaw located in the sub-surface of a two-layer geometry. The inspection is carried out by an uniform eddy current probe that induces a spatially uniform fields into the conducting space, around the region of interest. The analysis was performed using the semi-analytical boundary element method (BEM).","PeriodicalId":50340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Electromagnetics and Mechanics","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138683910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system operates by detecting magnetic anomalies in ferromagnetic materials caused by strain, corrosion, etc. This sensor can have various applications in the transportation,building, and aerospace fields for safety and maintenance monitoring of ferromagnetic materials. In this work, a low-cost device, that combines a high-sensitivity AMR sensor, a microcontroller, and supporting electronics has been designed and implemented. This sensor allows the contactless measurement of the magnetic flux density along three axes, when placed above the material under test, while the microcontroller and the required electronics enable real-time analysis and monitoring of measurements. In order to house and protect the sensor under various circumstances, a 3D-printed enclosure has also been created. This device can be used along with rehabilitation techniques for treatment of defective areas of an under-test material. Its versatility allows it to be employed in a variety of testing conditions for both single-point and scanning mode monitoring. The device’s portability, ease of use and applicability to on-site measurements make it accessible to a wide range of users, requiring only a personal computer to display the measurements.

In fact, FE modelling is widely used in the design of induction heating systems due its accuracy, even if the solution of a coupled nonlinear problem is expensive in terms of computational time and hardware resources, notably in 3D analysis. A model based on CNN could be an interesting alternative; in fact, CNN is a learning model selected for its excellent ability to converge, even when trained with a limited dataset. CNNs are able to treat images as input and they are used here as follows: given a temperature map in the workpiece, identify the corresponding vector of current, frequency and process heating time; this mapping is a model of the inverse induction heating problem. Specifically, we consider as an example the induction heating of a cylindrical steel billet, made of C45 steel, placed in a solenoidal inductor coil exhibiting the same axial length of the billet (TEAM 36 problem). A thorough heating process is usually applied before hot working of the billet, as in an extrusion process, but this methodology can be applied also in the design of induction hardening processes. First, a CNN has been trained from scratch by means of a dataset of FE solutions of coupled electromagnetic and thermal problems. For the sake of a comparison, a transfer learning technique is applied using GoogLeNet, i.e. a Deep Convolutional Neural Network able to classify images: starting from the pre-trained GoogLeNet, its training has been subsequently refined with the dataset of solutions from FE analyses. When the training dataset contains a limited number of samples, GoogleNet shows good accuracy in predicting the process parameters; in the case of a high number of samples in the training set, namely beyond a threshold like e.g. 1500, both CNNs show good accuracy of the result.","PeriodicalId":50340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Electromagnetics and Mechanics","volume":"69 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138503696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At high-frequency, the eddy current energy and Joule energy generated by the HSV will be converted into heat, which has a significantimpact on the service life of HSV. The optimization of HSV involves the interaction between energy loss and the dynamic response of HSV. To optimize the HSV dynamic response time considering energy loss, the HSV work process simulation model was established in this paper, and the model was verified based on armature lift experimental data. Without changing the structural parameters of the HSV, the four parameters of electroconductibility, spring stiffness, damping coefficient, and coil resistance were selected as the key parameters affecting the dynamic response and energy loss. The response surface models (RSMs) of opening response time, closing response time, eddy current energy and Joule energy of the HSV were constructed by using the smoothing spline-analysis of variance method. The multi-objective cooperation optimization of HSV under the interaction of dynamic response characteristics and energy loss was completed by using non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms. After optimization, the opening and closing response times of HSV were reduced by 15.1% and 16.6% respectively, while the eddy current energy and Joule energy were reduced by 5.2% and 48.4% respectively. In this paper, the dynamic response and energy loss were jointly optimized. The presented results provide theory instruction for multi-objective cooperative optimization of HSV.","PeriodicalId":50340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Electromagnetics and Mechanics","volume":"179 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The magnetic field intensity distribution function of the eddy current reaction magnetic field is derived for the first time based on Ampere circuital theorem. Considering the local magnetic saturation and skin effect, a novel double-iteration algorithm based on the conservation principle of magnetic pressure drop is applied to obtain the transient air-gap flux density distribution, and then the brake torque expression is obtained.

In order to observe the deviation of the Néel vector from the anisotropy axis, one of the simplest approaches is the electrical detection, whereby one monitors the change in resistance as a function of applied current. In this work, we have investigated the conditions under which an ultra-thin metallic antiferromagnet, Ir20Mn80 becomes susceptible to SOT effects by studying antiferromagnetic layer structure and thickness dependence in antiferromagnetic metal (Ir20Mn80)/heavy metal (Pt) superlattices. Our electrical measurements reveal that in bilayer structures there exists a shallow range of Ir20Mn80 thicknesses (∼1–2 nm) for which SOT driven control of spins is apparent, whereas for lower thicknesses incomplete sublattice formation and for higher thicknesses improved thermal stability prohibits vulnerability to spin currents. Furthermore, in multilayers, structural changes in Ir20Mn80 layer quenches local torques due to stronger (111) magnetocrystalline anisotropy. These results suggest that an exhaustive optimization of the antiferromagnet parameters is crucial for the successful deployment of spintronic devices.","PeriodicalId":50340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Electromagnetics and Mechanics","volume":"147 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136263532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
