To develop a new nondestructive testing(NDT)method for nondestructive evaluation of mechanical damage before the initiation of macro cracks and reveal the mechanism of natural magnetization
the quantitative correlation between the natural magnetization and the mechanical damage was experimentally investigated for a typical austenitic stainless steel SUS304
which is extensively used in nuclear power plants. In the experiments
simple tensile loading was performed to initialize plastic damages in specimens under different states. The corresponding leakage magnetic field due to natural magnetization and the residual strain distribution were measured after each loading cycle. The quantitative relation between mechanical damage and leakage magnetic field was established based on the phenomenon of natural magnetization
which shows the possibility to quantitatively detect mechanical damages in the austenitic stainless steel by measuring the natural magnetic field. Following the above results and combining with the advantages of metal memory measurement
a new mechanical damage detection method via NDT is presented.
