Abstract
The application of moment methods (MMs) to eddy-current testing problems for nondestructive evaluation (NDE) is considered. A general formulation for the MM that can be used to analyze NDE problems is derived, and calculated results and experimental data obtained from eddy-current testing of an artificially made sample are presented. Good agreement between the calculated results and the experimental data confirms the validity of the method and shows that the MM can be used as an alternative to the finite-element method (FEM) and the boundary-element method (BEM) in NDE
