Fracture micromechanisms and mechanical behavior of YBCO bulk superconductors at 77 and 300 K

In this study two YBa2Cu3O7-delta bulk superconductors were evaluated, with the aim of analyzing the influence of the processing method (TSMG and Bridgman) and the test temperature on their mechanical behavior. The relationship between their mechanical properties and fracture micromechanisms has als...
