The magnetic field, temperature, strain and angular dependence of the critical current density for Nb-Ti (2020)
Journal Article
Chislett-Mcdonald, S., Tsui, Y., Surrey, E., Kovari, M., & Hampshire, D. (2020). The magnetic field, temperature, strain and angular dependence of the critical current density for Nb-Ti. Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 1559, Article 012063. https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1559/1/012063

A scaling law for Jc in commercial Nb-Ti wire is proposed that describes its magnetic field, temperature and strain dependence. The scaling law is used to fit extensive measurements of the total strand critical current density, Jc,TS(B, T, ε), with t...

Could high H98-factor commercial tokamak power plants use Nb-Ti toroidal field coils? (2019)
Journal Article
Chislett-McDonald, S., Hampshire, D., & Surrey, E. (2019). Could high H98-factor commercial tokamak power plants use Nb-Ti toroidal field coils?. IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 29(5), Article 4200405. https://doi.org/10.1109/tasc.2019.2896402

In large engineering applications, materials that can fail by brittle fracture are avoided if there are practical, ductile alternatives. In recent years, advances in the experimental control and shaping of fusion energy plasmas have produced confinem...
