  • Abstract
    In this paper, we develop a new magnetic imaging system for non-destructive evaluation of structural and mechanical conditions of materials. This produces a multi-parameter contour plot of the spatial variations of variety of magnetic properties such as coercivity, remanence, permeability and Barkhausen effect signal. Also we have developed an integrated sensor probe capable of measuring both magnetic hysteresis and BE signals using magnetoresistive devices.
