Influence of an applied current on the vortex matter in a superconducting sample with structural defects

We show how the inclusion of a structural defect of determined geometry controls the vortex state in a square superconducting sample in the presence of an external magnetic field and a dc current. We simulated the defects by using the deformation parameter τ(x,y), solving the non-lineal time-depende...
