Nitriding is a heat treatment process that is commonly used to enhance the surface properties of ferrous components. Traditional quality control uses sacrificial pieces that are destructively evaluated. However, efficient production requires quality control where the case depths produced are non-destructively evaluated. In this study, four different low alloy steel materials were studied. Nitriding times for the samples were varied to produce varying case depths. Traditional Barkhausen noise and Barkhausen noise sweep measurements were carried out for non-destructive case depth evaluation. A prediction model between traditional Barkhausen noise measurements and diffusion layer hardness was identified. The diffusion layer hardness was predicted and sweep measurement data was used to predict case depths. Modelling was carried out for non-ground and ground samples with good results.

Abstract The paper reports on a non-destructive method of reliability prediction for semiconductor lasers diodes GaSb based VCSE (vertical cavity surface emitting). Transport and noise characteristic of forward biased were measured in order to evaluate the new MBE (molecular beam epitaxy) technology. The results demonstrate that the lasers prepared by new MBE technology have higher quality than the samples prepared by using the classic MBE technology.

Abstract Non-destructive testing methods are used largely in component manufacturing industries like Aerospace, Renewables and Power to evaluate the properties of a material or the quality of a component by inspecting for cracks and discontinuities without causing damage to the part. Among the many non-destructive testing methods, Eddy current imaging enables efficient flaw detection for surface and sub-surface cracks. However, in typical eddy current inspection, there can be significant number of false calls arising from variation in lift-off and surface anomalies. Discriminating defect signals from false calls can be very challenging. This paper describes a method to reduce false calls by using a wavelet based denoising algorithm and combining it with statistical-based features extracted inside a sliding window in the time domain to efficiently identify the cracks. The results are verified on specimens with cracks of different sizes that are oriented randomly along with locations available for baseline noise measurements.

Magnetic Non Destructive Testing (MNDT) methods are a tool not limited in the detection of cracks and defects, like traditional NDT methods for ferrous structures, but they have shown a potential for the monitoring of the structure and crack prevention. MNDT techniques include surface Magnetic Barkhausen Noise measurements (MBN) yielding localized information about the surface stresses and magnetization processes in the vicinity of the measurement; the use of Magnetostrictive Delay Lines (MDL) for the measurement of surface stresses; the Magneto Acoustic Emission (MAE), revealing information about the magnetic domain wall propagation and indirectly about the underlying structure’s role in the magnetization process of the material; magnetic major and minor loop (B-H) bulk measurements which yield information on the macroscopic magnetic properties of the material such as, the coercivity, Hc, the remanence, Br, or the permeability, µ. Results show that changes in these properties are definite signs of non-uniformly distributed stresses along the material and reveal a definitive dependence of the various magnetization reversal mechanisms such as domain wall propagation and domain rotation on the microstructure of the material,eg, the domain wall structure, the effect of dislocations, the grain size, built-in stresses. However, the quantitative mapping of the MNDT results to the microstructure and from there to the possibility of crack generation and propagation is still a very attractive but open question. Modeling at the atomic level involving Ising Models, at the microscopic level using micromagnetic calculations and at the macroscopic level employing the Preisach formalism, has so far provided useful insight. The use of modeling in order to not only explain experimental results but in forecasting is expected to greatly enhance the position of the MNDT techniques in industrial NDT.
