“…Recently, the planar eddy current probe has become a research hotspot because it can be shaped to adapt metallic part surfaces to suppress lift-off noise and detect hard-to-reach areas [1,2]. Many structures have been proposed to design the planar flexible eddy current probe, such as the meandering winding magnetometer [3,4,5], rosette-like [6,7], parallelogram [8], mesh-winding [9], line [10], double rectangle [11], uneven step distribution [12], double-S shape [13], circular spiral [14], same direction line [4] and so on. Those structures are composed of line, circle and their spiral, so the eddy current in metallic parts with smaller direction range cannot be disturbed by the short defects in the same certain direction.…”
