Abstract: Describing the intermediate deformation steps on the mechanical behavior of Bi-based tapes, the effect of longitudinal applied strain is investigated by means of magneto-optical imaging is discussed. Although the colony boundaries in BSCCO tapes determine the crack location under strain, in YBCO coated conductor the nickel grain structure dominates the crack formation.
