Abstract
In this thesis the feasibility of using superconductors to generate a magnetic field in an actuator is studied. The first objective of the thesis is to determine the achievable magnetic fields with commercially available superconductors. Second a superconducting actuator and its cryostat are designed. Finally the superconducting actuator is evaluated on its electromechanical, thermal and commercial feasibility.
