(electricity)

In induction heating, the thickness of a layer, extending inward from a conductor's surface, whose resistance to direct current equals the resistance of the whole conductor to alternating current of a given frequency.

(engineering)

The greatest depth in an ultrasonic test piece at which indications can be measured.
