During the service process of remanufactured components, the stress and crack may occur at the interface between coating and substrate due to their mechanical property mismatch. Based on the spontaneous magnetization phenomenon in ferromagnetic materials, the stress distribution and crack propagation length along the interface can be characterized. In this paper, the magnetomechanical constitutive model for interface is established according to Timoshenko beam theory and Jiles' stress-magnetization model. The distributions of stress and residual magnetization along the interface are analyzed under the effect of typical three-point bending (TPB) load. The results show that the interfacial residual magnetization Mr can reflect the stress distribution very well and its peak value at supporting seat Mr3 is closely related to interfacial crack propagation length. In order to verify the theoretical model, the metal magnetic memory (MMM) technique is used to collect the residual magnetic field along the interface in the TPB testing. The experimental results are consistent with the theoretical predictions. They indicate that the magnetomechanical model for coating/substrate interface established in this paper can provide the theoretical support for magnetic non-destructive testing and the calculation results can be applied to the interfacial crack propagation length characterization in MMM.
