Abstract :
A medium-addition method and its recent development are recommended for calculating the 2-D alternating magnetic field in the vicinity of a defect. A fictitious medium with negative conductivity is suggested to simulate the defect. The prominent advantages of this method are that it requires much less computer capacity and is time saving. It is concluded that a medium-addition method can be used to solve certain electromagnetic field problems in nondestructive testing if the media are linear and the defect is a tiny crack or a small hole
