Abstract
We present a detailed simulation of a Josephson junction array in the presence of a varying external field and a transport current. We show that the field profiles in the array are similar to the profiles gener ated by the critical state model for an infinite slab of hard type-II superconductor. A discrete equation similar to Bean's model is introdu ced to describe the field profiles in the array.
