Numerical Modeling of Magnetic Field Emissions From am HDD Walkover Locating System

A. Jaganathan [1], J. Montoute [1],
[1] Louisiana Tech University, Ruston, LA, USA

In this paper, numerical modeling of the artificially induced magnetic field from a walk-over locator used to detect the drill head underground in Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is presented. Numerical predictions are compared against the experimental data and closed-form ... Read More

Analysis of a Prototype MRI Hybrid Birdcage RF Coil with Uncertainty Quantification (*)

J. T. Fong [1],
[1] National Institute of Standards & Technology, Gaithersbug, MD, USA

INTRODUCTION. In a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system (see Fig. 1), it is necessary to excite the nuclei of a patient into coherent precession for imaging. This requires coupling between the nuclei and a source of radio frequency (RF) power (the transmitter). To receive a ... Read More

Maximizing the Fatigue Crack Response in Surface Eddy Current Inspections of Aircraft Structures
