The mechanical stresses reduction in a thin-walled quasi-force-free magnetic system inserted into external crossed magnetic fields

The mechanical stresses in the thin-walled quasi-force-free winding of the solenoid, which arise when a strong pulsed magnetic field is produced, can be significantly reduced if the winding is inserted into the space between two magnets creating crossed fields. It is shown that, with a rational choice of the amplitude and shape of the external field pulses, the stresses can be reduced to values less than one tenth of the magnetic pressure of the generated field.
