We present a perspective on a new critical-current-by-design paradigm to tailor and enhance the current-carrying capacity of applied superconductors. Critical-current-by-design is based on large-scale simulations of vortex matter pinning in high-temperature superconductors and has qualitative and quantitative predictive powers to elucidate vortex dynamics under realistic conditions and to propose vortex pinning defects that could enhance the critical current, particularly at high magnetic fields. The simulations are validated with controlled experiments and demonstrate a powerful tool for designing high-performance superconductors for targeted applications.
