This paper develops and summarizes analytical techniques for calculating radially dependent stress and strain in superconducting windings having anisotropic mechanical and thermal properties. The analysis considers stresses due to fabrication procedures, cooldown to helium temperature, and magnetic forces. Representative calculations for a particular superconducting coil are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
