New results of the investigations critical current problems in the high temperature oxide superconductors are presented, basing on an analysis of the flux pinning on nano-sized centers. New model of the interaction pancake vortices with the nano-sized centers is proposed, while comparison of obtained results with others pinning forces approaches presented. The energy balance approach is applied, which leads to the appearance of the potential barrier determining the pancake vortices movement in the flux creep process. Various initial positions of the captured vortex have been analyzed, while variation of the screening currents for such configuration has been considered and initial calculations of the influence this effect on the current-voltage characteristics performed. The dependence of the critical current on the pinning centers parameters has been obtained while comparison with experimental data is given. Pinning force has been calculated and its temperature dependence, which is in qualitative agreement with an experiment. Critical current determines the magnetic induction profiles and therefore flux trapping, very important parameter from the point of view of an application HTc superconductors as permanent magnets. The influence of the critical current on the flux trapping in ceramic granular superconductors is calculated as well as influence of various other material parameters - grain radius, surface barrier, fulfillment of the ceramic with superconducting grains. Influence of the critical current on a.c. losses in second generation HTc tapes with magnetic substrate is discussed briefly too.
