The metal magnetic memory (MMM) phenomena are analysed using normal component Hy of self-magnetic flux leakage (SMFL), and its tangential component Hx, as well as their respective gradients. The measurement apparatus is described together with possible factors that may affect the results of measurement. The Type A uncertainty estimation and repeatability tests were performed. The results demonstrate that the system may be successfully applied to detection of head check flaws.}, type={Article}, title={Evaluation of the residual magnetic field measurement system for early identification of railway defects}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/114021/PDF/08_MMS_4_INTERNET.pdf}, doi={10.24425/mms.2019.130568}, keywords={residual magnetic field, measurement, rail inspection, uncertainty, repeatability}, }
