ABSTRACT:
A non-destructive inspection includes: magnetizing a target by a first magnetostatic field (S2); shutting off the magnetostatic field (S3); measuring, at measurement points, the transient change of a differential magnetic flux density of a first residual magnetic field of the target (S4); obtaining a first time constant by the main time constant of the transient change at each measurement point (S5); magnetizing the target by a second magnetostatic field (S2); shutting off the second field (S3); measuring, at the measurement points, the transient change of a differential magnetic flux density of a second residual magnetic field of the target (S4); obtaining a second time constant by the main time constant of the transient change for each measurement point (S5); and obtaining information about the internal structure of the target by the distribution differences between the first and the second time constants at the measurement points (S7).
