Code design of Unreinforced Masonry (URM) buildings is based on elastic analysis, which requires as input parameter the effective stiffness of URM walls. Current approaches estimate the effective stiffness as fixed ratio of the gross sectional stiffness bu ...
Understanding the electro-thermal behavior of high-temperature superconductor (HTS) materials is a critical aspect for designing efficient and reliable applications. In order to optimize cost and performance, one needs to understand the role played by the ...
When thinned down to the atomic scale, many layered van der Waals materials exhibit an interesting evolution of their electronic properties, whose main aspects can be accounted for by changes in the single-particle bandstructure. Phenomena driven by intera ...
A much-needed update on complex high-temperature superconductors, focusing on materials aspects; this timely book coincides with a recent major break-through of the discovery of iron-based superconductors. It provides an overview of materials aspects of hi ...
In layered superconductors the order parameter may be modulated within the unit cell, leading to nontrivial modifications of the vortex core if the interlayer coherence length ξc(T) is comparable to the interlayer spacing. In the iron pnictide SmFeAs(O,F) ...
One of the biggest goals for the international thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER) is the steady state operation. For this reason all its coils will be superconducting and Nb3Sn material is used for both the toroidal field (TF) and the central soleno ...
Thanks to recent scientific achievements, second generation high-temperature superconductor coated conductors (HTS-CCs) can carry enormous current densities with reduced losses. In addition, they are able to switch from a negligible resistivity state to a ...
The most popular fit for describing the volt-ampere characteristic of a superconducting material is a power law with exponent n. Usually for a Nb3Sn wire the n-index is parametrized as a function of the sole critical current (I-c). An experiment to determi ...
High temperature superconducting (HTS) materials have the potential to generate a magnetic field beyond the level obtainable with low temperature superconducting (LTS) materials. This review reports on past and present R&D on HTS cables and conductors for ...
Although crystals of strongly correlated metals exhibit a diverse set of electronic ground states, few approaches exist for spatially modulating their properties. In this study, we demonstrate disorder-free control, on the micrometer scale, over the superc ...
