The multi-field coupled model included the static magnetic field, pulsed eddy current field and mechanical field. The FEM equations of the three fields were derived by Garlerkin FEM method.

The transduction process of a Lamb wave EMAT was calculated according to the present model and method.

Some useful numerical calculations are presented to explain the EMAT behavior with general geometric arrangements. It is indicated that for the ferromagnetic material the magnetostriction effect dominates the EMAT phenomenon for ultrasonic wave generation in low magnetic field intensity, while the material does not reach its magnetizing saturation. But, with the increase of the bias magnetic field and saturation, the magnetostrictive terms will make no contributions to the ultrasonic generation and the Lorentz force becomes the only exciting mechanism. It is important to determine both the Lorentz and magnetostriction forces and select the appropriate working manner for achieving an optimized design.展开更多
