Popis: Austenitic manganese steel is a commonly used material for railway turnout frogs due to its beneficial mechanical properties. In service, surface defects caused by rolling contact fatigue (RCF) can occur and need to be detected and assessed during maintenance intervals. In this work inductive scanning pulse phase thermography is used to localize these surface defects. During scanning the surface of the frog is heated (∆T
