Abstract Bulk (RE)-Ba-Cu-O [(RE) BCO] cuprate HTS have been developed steadily towards
a wide range of sustainable engineering and technological applications since their …

The ability of large-grain (RE) Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ ((RE) BCO; RE= rare earth) bulk
superconductors to trap magnetic fields is determined by their critical current. With high …

Large-grain high-temperature superconductors of the form RE-Ba-Cu-O (where RE is a rare-
earth element) can trap magnetic fields of several tesla at low temperatures, and so can be …

The development of bulk high-temperature superconductors (HTSs) and their applications
has today come to a point where the mechanical response to high magnetic fields may be …

High temperature superconducting (HTS) tape can be cut and stacked to generate large
magnetic fields at cryogenic temperatures after inducing persistent currents in the …

We fabricated a single-domain Gd–Ba–Cu–O bulk superconductor 65 mm in diameter and
studied the microstructure, superconducting and field-trap** properties. Melt-processing …

Improved trapped fields are reported for bulk melt-textured YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ (YBCO)
material in the temperature range between 20 and 50 K. Trapped fields up to 12.2 T were …

High trapped fields were found in zinc-doped, bulk melt-textured YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− x (YBCO)
material showing a pronounced peak effect in the field dependence of the critical current …

This paper reviews the usual techniques for producing YBCO-type single-domains and the
microstructure of the as-obtained samples. The problems of seed dissolution and parasite …

The irreversible behavior of the flux-pinning-induced stress and strain in a long circular
cylindrical superconductor placed in a parallel magnetic field is analyzed. An exact solution …
