Abstract: | An analysis is made of the geometric and morphological properties of YBCO superconducting films and of their effect on the
magnetic and transport phenomena. A study is presented of the statistical characteristics of critical currents derived from
the variation of trapped magnetic flux induced by passing a pulsed transport current. It is shown that the critical currents
in the materials under study have a specific statistical distribution, whose main properties are due to the morphology of
their structure and can be determined by geometric-probability analysis. The superconducting film is considered as a percolation
system. An empirical normal-phase cluster-area distribution function was used to derive the distribution function of magnetic
critical currents, which describes adequately the experimental data on how transport current affects trapped magnetic flux.
The critical current for transition of a film to the resistive state has been calculated.
