“…Ekin et al [24] confirmed the beneficial effects on training of potting with wax and of 4 K pre-strain. The general conclusion from this work was that the observed behaviour could be explained by a "stress relief model in which the training is assumed to arise from a series of local fractures at stress concentrations".…”

“…Ekin et al [24,31] carried out a number of experiments on small epoxy impregnated magnets. These small solenoids could be energised in a 5T-background field and subjected to large hoop strains.…”

“…Using the same apparatus, Ekin et al [24] examined a number of other variables in the coil manufacturing process. Short 'milled' glass fibres were included within the coil, prior to impregnation with the aim of decreasing the thermal contraction of the resin and so reducing cracking.…”

“…In both reports [24,31] it was assumed that epoxy fracture is the mechanical event that is occurring at stress concentrations and releasing energy. The precision with which Ekin et al were able to reproduce training quenches and the precise 'memory effect' of pre-strained coils is an important factor.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
