Abstract
Method and apparatus are disclosed utilizing superconducting elements with extended strain operating range capabilities. The superconducting element is formed from a crystalline compound superconductive material that does not exhibit appreciable critical current degradation in the presence of high elastic strains imposed on the element. Such a crystalline compound superconductive material is selected from materials in the B1 and C15 crystal structure classes. The thus formed superconducting element is particularly useful in electromagnets requiring high magnetic fields for operation in the intended manner.
