Abstract

This paper describes the numerical analysis of the magnetization process of type II superconductors based on the Ginzburg-Landau theory. A computer code based on the finite difference method was developed and it was applied to simulate the magnetization process of type I and type II superconductors. As regards the time integration method, the CPU times required for the computation in some cases of GL-parameter were compared for two difference schemes, the backward and the forward schemes
