Model-based study demonstrates the impact of defect parameters on magnetic response in wheelset axles, indicating practical significance for inspection systems.

Key Points

This research aims to understand how defects in wheelset axles generate identifiable magnetic signatures during inspections.
Developed a 3D physical model using Maxwell’s equations to simulate inspection conditions.
Represented defects as equivalent air gaps to analyze magnetostatic effects.
Conducted numerical simulations in MATLAB utilizing the finite element method (FEM) for accuracy.
Expanded computational domain to account for boundary conditions and local magnetic-field disturbances.
Established a quantitative link between magnetic field disturbances and defect parameters such as depth, width, and orientation.
Found that peak magnetic flux density increases with defect depth while maintaining a stable position.
Noted that defect width affects the range of the leakage field, and orientation leads to asymmetry in magnetic flux.
