The spectral properties of the magnetic polarizability tensor for metallic object characterisation (2019)
Journal Article
Ledger, P., & Lionheart, W. (2020). The spectral properties of the magnetic polarizability tensor for metallic object characterisation. Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, 43(1), 78-113. https://doi.org/10.1002/mma.5830

The measurement of time-harmonic perturbed field data, at a range of frequencies, is beneficial for practical metal detection, where the goal is to locate and identify hidden targets. In particular, these benefits are realised when frequency-dependen... Read More about The spectral properties of the magnetic polarizability tensor for metallic object characterisation.

An accurate and efficient three‐dimensional high‐order finite element methodology for the simulation of magneto‐mechanical coupling in MRI scanners (2019)
Journal Article
Seoane, M., Ledger, P., Gil, A., & Mallett, M. (2019). An accurate and efficient three‐dimensional high‐order finite element methodology for the simulation of magneto‐mechanical coupling in MRI scanners. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 119(12), 1185-1215. https://doi.org/10.1002/nme.6088

Transient magnetic fields are generated by the gradient coils in an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner and induce eddy currents in their conducting components, which lead to vibrations, imaging artefacts, noise, and the dissipation of heat. Hea... Read More about An accurate and efficient three‐dimensional high‐order finite element methodology for the simulation of magneto‐mechanical coupling in MRI scanners.

Accelerating magnetic induction tomography‐based imaging through heterogeneous parallel computing (2019)
Journal Article
Walker, D. W., Kramer, S. C., Biebl, F. R. A., Ledger, P. D., & Brown, M. (in press). Accelerating magnetic induction tomography‐based imaging through heterogeneous parallel computing. Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, e5265. https://doi.org/10.1002/cpe.5265

Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT) is a non-invasive imaging technique, which has applications in both industrial and clinical settings. In essence, it is capable of reconstructing the electromagnetic parameters of an object from measurements made o...
