Correlation of Magnetic Barkhausen Noise with Microstructure in the In-Depth Direction of a Railhead

Article Preview

Abstract:

The characterization of microstructures, mechanical properties, deformation, damage initiation, and growth by Non-Destructive Evaluation techniques is assuming a vital role in various materials. In this paper, the use of Magnetic Barkhausen Noise technique for characterization of mechanical properties in magnetic steel would be discussed. The results have shown that hardening depth and its quality with respect to the microstructure in induction hardened specimens could also be established using the Magnetic Barkhausen Noise technique.
