Abstract

By using the Monte-Carlo method, the dependencies of transport characteristics of a type-II superconductor on the degree of bending strain applied to the sample have been numerically studied. Multiple series of voltage-current characteristics have been acquired for a sample of a high-temperature superconductor for different numbers of strain-induced cracks, as well as various point defects concentrations and different values of external magnetic field. Some peculiarities of the voltage-current characteristics have been detected. Average vortex configurations have been acquired showing that in the points of peculiarities the vortex lattice “freezes” in spaces between cracks. The results for the increasing number of cracks have shown a significant degradation of critical current density.
