A method includes receiving data characterizing a signal obtained by a plurality of magnetic field receivers, the signal formed of a combination of a first magnetic field, a second magnetic field resulting from interaction of the first magnetic field and a first object, and a third signal resulting from motion of receivers within the first magnetic field and/or an external magnetic field other than the first magnetic field. The method also includes determining a component of the signal characterizing a contribution of the second magnetic field to the signal by multiplying the received data by a mapping that characterizes the contributions of the third signal to the signal to cancel the contributions of the third signal. The method further includes providing the determined component of the signal characterizing the contribution of the second field to the signal. Related systems and computer program products are also provided.

A physical simulation test method for detecting a position of a ponding goaf in the excavation, which relates to physical detection of mines. This method includes: fabricating an experimental model of a composition similar to that of an excavating tunnel; fabricating a transient transmitting coil and receiving coil; connecting the coil to a wire and placing them in model A; connecting the coil to a transient electromagnetometer; injecting water into a trapezoidal goaf through a pre-buried plastic pipe; after the goaf is filled with water, immediately switching the transient electromagnetometer on to collect data; respectively transferring the coil to models B, C and D, injecting water and switching on the transient electromagnetometer to collect data; statistically analyzing detection and imaging results of the four models; and comparing the detection results with the actual data to determine detection accuracy and correction coefficient.

The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for cleaning a 3D printed article, in particular a 3D printed heat exchanger. After 3D printing, an article may have internal passages formed from bonded powder and said passages may contain unbonded powder that needs to be removed before further use of/processing of the article. To remove this unbonded powder, the article is filled with a cleaning fluid and vibrated. The cleaning fluid is then pumped out of the article and past a sensor that generates a magnetic field. The sensor detects the presence of powder particles in the fluid by detecting a perturbation of the magnetic field caused by said particles. The fluid is then filtered and returned to a reservoir for use. The sensor may indicate the article is sufficiently clean when a detected concentration of particles in the fluid drops below a threshold.
