Abstract :
The detection of thin-opening cracks is an important part of the eddy-current nondestructive testing (NDT). The integral formulation is well adapted for this modelization if the geometry of the tested piece is simple. However, some integrals involved in the computation contain strong singularities. The aim of this paper is to improve the classical numerical resolution using a general computing method of hypersingular integral
