Mechanical response induced by flux jump in a cylindrical superconductor

The flux jump in bulk superconductors is accompanied by a rapid change in temperature and magnetic field, which can induce change in electromagnetic bodyforce and thermal stress. It is well known that bulk superconductors are brittle and have low mechanical strength, and thus, large electromagnetic...
