This allowed assessing, through examination and testing of a large number of VPI conductor array samples extracted from the mockup, the soundness of the coil through advanced non-destructive examination techniques including X-ray microtomography, dimensional metrology measurements and micro-optical observations. Moreover, additional testing of physical and mechanical properties carried out at room and cryogenic temperature allowed the behaviour of the conductor stacks to be assessed. The paper summarises the results of these investigations and their interpretation through mechanical analyses based on the individual properties of the coil constituents." }); // ]]> </script> <!-- JQuery Bookmark Button END --> </div> </div> <div style="clear:both;margin-bottom: 0;"></div> </div> <div class="bottom-left"></div><div class="bottom-right"></div> </div> </div></div> <footer id="footer" class="pagefooter clearfix"> <!-- replaced page footer --> <div class="pagefooterstripeleft"> CERN Document Server&nbsp;::&nbsp;<a class="footer" href="https://cds.cern.ch/?ln=no">Søk</a>&nbsp;::&nbsp;<a class="footer" href="https://cds.cern.ch/submit?ln=no">Send inn</a>&nbsp;::&nbsp;<a class="footer" href="https://cds.cern.ch/youraccount/display?ln=no">Brukerinnstillinger</a>&nbsp;::&nbsp;<a class="footer" href="https://cds.cern.ch/help/?ln=no">Hjelp</a>&nbsp;::&nbsp;<a class="footer" href="https://cern.service-now.com/service-portal?id=privacy_policy&se=CDS-Service" target="_blank">Privacy Notice</a> <br /> Powered by <a class="footer" href="http://invenio-software.org/">Invenio</a> <br /> Vedlikeholdt av <a class="footer" href="https://cern.service-now.com/service-portal?id=service_element&name=CDS-Service">CDS Service</a> - Need help?
