Abstract :
In order to investigate an effective method for removing the residual magnetization in the steel structure of a building by a demagnetizing coil, a method for estimating the distribution of residual magnetization by means of a three-dimensional nonlinear eddy-current analysis was proposed. The tendency of the result obtained from the proposed method was in good agreement with the experimental result. Moreover, it was found that the demagnetizing coil should be set perpendicular to the steel structure.
