Nondestructive detection sensor technology

Project in collaboration with a Liechtenstein company

Project description

The goal of the project is to detect magnetically permeable and electrically conductive materials in the underground by means of nondestructive sensors or testing based on electromagnetic induction. The method involves modeling of 3D electromagnetic structure by finite element method (FEM) verified theoretically and experimentally with the ability to optimize the results to achieve accuracy and new features in the detection methods.
