An electromagnetic NDE technique for measuring the crack opening displacement of surface fatigue cracks is described. A ferromagnetic resonance probe utilizing yttrium-iron-garnet was used to induce eddy currents in an aluminum plate. The crack opening disolacement of a semi-elliptical fatigue crack evaluated at the surface was measured optically at several values of bending stress on the specimen. A technique is presented which allows the crack depth to be calculated from the measured COD at a given stress. The relative phase and magnitude of input vs. output signal to and from the resonating YIG sphere was recorded during the interaction of the FMR probe eddy currents and the fatigue crack. A method is shown to extract quantitative information from these signals and to correlate this information with the crack opening displacement.
