Pipe Inspection using Ultrasonic Guided Waves with Staggered EMAT

Large pipelines are utilized for a variety of applications in practically every industry. The pipe beneath the saddle support is the most vulnerable to corrosion, and since these pipes are working in severe environments, corrosion may occur that can result into wall thinning of pipe. The research focuses on the design and optimization of Staggered Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducers (EMATs) and the application of guided wave cut off property to determine the remnant thickness in order to analyze these corroded pipes under saddle support system.
