| Research Abstract |
Design and development of superconducting applications require basic research on cryogenic/magnetic fracture mechanics. In this research project, the cryogenic/magnetic fracture strength of material systems for superconducting applications is investigated using the notched bending small specimens. From the numerical considerations and experimental results, the following can be concluded :
1.We perform the fracture toughness tests on austenitic stainless steels and weldments in cryogenic high magnetic field environments and examine the effect of magnetic field on the cryogenic fracture properties
2.We carry out the cryogenic fracture tests on woven glass fiber reinforced plastic(GFRP) laminates and examine the influence of specimen size on the strength. During the tests, acoustic emission monitoring is employed to characterize the damage development. The specimen fracture behavior is also simulated numerically using the finite element technique.
3.We study the cryogenic fracture behavior of bulk superconductors and discuss the effect of inclusions and voids on the crack growth properties.
