This paper proposes a contactless method for the identification of the electrical conductivity tensor of a carbon fiber composite materials plate using a rotating magnetic field and multi-coil eddy current sensor. This sensor consists of identical rectangular multi-coil, excited by two-phase sinusoidal current source in order to generate a rotating magnetic field and to avoid the mechanical rotation of the sensor. The fibers orientations, the longitudinal and transverse conductivities in each ply of carbon fiber composite material plate were directly determined with analysis of the impedance variation of each coil as function of its angular position. The inversion process is based on the use of artificial neural networks. The direct calculation associated with artificial neural networks makes use of 3D time-harmonic finite element method based on the A, V–A formulation.

Composite materials have some obvious advantages such as high specific strength 、high specific modulus 、corrosion resistant 、abrasion resistant and so on, it is believed to be highly competitive compare to other materials. Advanced composite materials have been used more and more widely in defense industry, among them carbon fiber reinforced resin base composite material is most representative [1] ,there has great value for the study of carbon fiber composite materials. Eddy current is a nondestructive testing technology widely used on metal materials, the using of eddy current technology in aviation domain has a long history, but there is few reports on composite material with eddy current NDT. Experiments show that eddy current used on composite material is feasible, and the result is satisfactory. The thickness measurements of carbon fiber advanced composite materials have been done in two different ways.
