SIMULATION OF LASER MELTING AND EVAPORATION OF SUPERCONDUCTING CERAMICS

Abstract
The peculiarities of pulsed laser melting and evaporation of the superconducting ceramics are analyzed by means of numerical simulation. The appearance of the overheated metastable states in solid and liquid phases is shown as a result of the phase front dynamics and volume nature of laser energy release. A method of dynamic adaptation for the multifront Stefan problem is proposed.
