Abstract

A method and apparatus for the inspection of ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic pipes (14) or other cylindrical shell structures utilizing the magnetostrictive effect to detect defects within the structure.
The invention constitutes an active testing application, wherein a transmitting coil element (16) generates a mechanical pulse (15) within a cylindrical shell structure through the magnetostrictive effect and a second coil (24) detects reflected mechanical waves (15) within the pipe, or a single sensor (10) functions as both transmitter and detector.
The present invention also anticipates a passive monitoring application with a detection coil (16) that continuously monitors ferromagnetic or non-ferromagnetic cylindrical structures for mechanical or acoustic wave emissions (15). Non-ferromagnetic structures (14) are made amenable to inspection by attaching a layer of ferromagnetic material such as nickel on a wall of the structure by plating or bonding such material in a local area where the sensor is to be placed.
