Summary
This paper describes CoCaSCOPE-MG, a three-dimensional finite element mesh generator tool developed at CEA for creating numerical models of Rutherford superconducting cables used in next-generation high-field accelerator magnets. The tool automates geometry construction and mesh generation from primary cable parameters (strand count, dimensions, etc.) and supports multiple cable configurations and multi-physics simulation. The authors present the underlying geometric construction methodology and announce open access to the tool for the scientific community.
UK applicability
This tool has limited direct applicability to UK agricultural or soil health research. It is relevant only to UK-based research institutions or industrial partners engaged in superconducting magnet development for particle accelerators or fusion research.
Key measures
Geometric construction methodology, mesh generation features, modelling of cable configurations (core variants, keystoned shapes), multi-physics and multi-axial loading representation
Outcomes reported
The study presents the development and features of CoCaSCOPE-MG, a tool for generating three-dimensional finite element models of Rutherford cables from cable parameters. The tool enables meshed FE models suitable for multi-physics simulation, with capacity to model various cable configurations including stainless-steel cores and keystoned shapes.
