High-temperature superconducting magnet coils made with Sumitomo Type HT-NX are complex composite structures composed of Bi-2223 conductor filaments, silver matrix, solder, nickel-alloy laminations, polymer insulation, and epoxy or wax. The mechanical properties of these composites are required inpu...
