Processing of High-Temperature Superconductors at High Strain

By Athanasios G. Mamalis, D.E. Manolakos, A. Szalay

High temperature superconducting materials are used in many engineering applications, from electronic sensors to rotating electrical generators. Therefore, design and net-shape manufacturing of superconducting components is now of utmost industrial importance. This book provides a systematic, unified presentation of all steps in the processing of high-temperature superconductor materials, ranging from synthesis of various systems to fabrication and industrial applications. It also covers characterization techniques and current directions in research and development. The authors are leading specialists who bring to this book their many years of experience in research, education and industrial engineering work in superconductor materials.
