Direct and Inverse Problems of Electromagnetic Control

Resumo

A mathematic model is suggested of the direct and universe problems of flaw detection. The direct problem consists in determining the complex amplitude of EMF in the through-type-induction- transducer–air gap–ferromagnetic cylinder system. In the direct problem, the distribution laws of magnetic permeability and electrical conduction are assumed to be known. A formula is obtained for calculating the complex amplitude of EMF in the class of piecewise-constant dependences of electromagnetic parameters. The inverse problem of flaw detection for a ferromagnetic cylinder consists in determining the magnetic permeability based on the measured values of the moduli of the EMF amplitudes in the system on a fixed frequency grid. An approximate solution of the inverse problem is searched in the class of piecewise-constant functions. Tikhonov’s method of regularization is used to solve the inverse problem. The results of numerical and physical modeling are presented.
