Stress is the most serious obstacle in raising magnetic intensity of a high-pulsed magnet. However

it is difficult to determine accurately both in theoretical analysis and in electromechanical design as its complicated distribution and interaction. In this paper

a finite element method is applied to calculate the stress and all present coupled component

such as pre-stress

electromagnetic force and thermal stress etc.

are all taken into account. Some helpful rules for magnet design are obtained in terms of numerical results.
