The high-T c superconducting (HTS) dynamo is a promising device that can inject large DC
supercurrents into a closed superconducting circuit. This is particularly attractive to energise …

High-temperature superconductors are a powerful technological option to be applied in the
current scenario of energy transition. Their applications include fault current limiters, power …

We review the modeling progress of the magnetic response of hard type-II superconductors
