Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Eddy current inspections are one of the most widely used nondestructive testing methods, and are applied alike to the inspection of large components, such as aircraft or ships, and small products, such as tubes, rods, or welds. The eddy current technique has found application at every stage of a product’s life; that is, from the prototype, through the production process, to periodic inspections during operation. Inspections are aimed not only at detecting defects, but also at determining thickness, magnetic and electrical properties, or assessing technical condition. Technological progress means that the limits of the eddy current method are constantly changing and, today, thinner and thinner layers such as thermal barrier coatings with thicknesses of tens of micrometers and very low conductivity materials such as carbon fiber composites are being studied. In this Special Issue, we encourage all authors to submit papers on various aspects of eddy current testing, including such topics as:
- Eddy current arrays;
- Analytical and numerical modeling;
- Pulsed eddy currents;
- Eddy current imaging;
- Inverse problems;
- Lorentz force eddy current testing;
- Motion-induced eddy currents;
- Computer simulations;
- Eddy current thermography;
- Probe design;
- Health prediction using eddy current sensing data;
- Electromagnetic field sensors in eddy current testing;
- Eddy current fusion with other nondestructive testing methods.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
