Abstract
We present a method to calculate the inductance matrix of three dimens ional superconducting structures by minimizing the free energy. In the case of high-T-c superconductors, the kinetic inductance becomes subs tantial and an accurate calculation of inductances is required. The Lo ndon penetration depth lambda and the kinetic inductance are accuratel y included by this method. The results of this program agree well with measurements of high-T-c dc-SQUIDs (superconducting quantum interfere nce devices).
