This book introduces the fundamental theory of electromagnetic ultrasonic guided waves
together with its applications. It includes the dispersion characteristics and matching theory
of guided waves the mechanism of production and theoretical model of electromagnetic
ultrasonic guided waves the effect mechanism between guided waves and defects the simulation
method for the entire process of electromagnetic ultrasonic guided wave propagation
electromagnetic ultrasonic thickness measurement pipeline axial guided wave defect detection
and electromagnetic ultrasonic guided wave detection of gas pipeline cracks.This theory and
findings on applications draw on the author's intensive research over the past eight years. The
book can be used for nondestructive testing technology and as an engineering reference work.
The specific implementation of the electromagnetic ultrasonic guided wave system presented here
will also be of value for other nondestructive test developers.
