Popis: Local and overall transport critical current I C and n -value at 77 K of multifilamentary Bi2223-composite tape were studied under applied tensile and bending strains. The I C and n -value of the local elements constituting of the overall sample and those of the overall sample were measured for the voltage probe distances 10 and 60 mm, respectively. The local I C as well as n -value varied along the sample length under both tensile and bending strains, while the critical current reduction process under the tensile strain was quite different from that under bending one; a big difference in damage among the local elements was found under tensile strain but not under bending one. While the damage process was different between the tensile and bending strains, the relation of overall I C and n -value to the local ones was described comprehensively by the voltage summation model. From the analysis of the experimentally observed critical current–applied strain relation of the local elements, the variation of the critical current determining factor “fracture strain–residual strain” along the sample length was revealed.
