Standard Guide for Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of Metallic Vascular Stents Subjected to Uniform Radial Loading

Importancia y uso:

4.1 Finite element analysis is a valuable tool for evaluating the performance of metallic stents and in estimating quantities such as stress, strain, and displacement due to applied external loads and boundary conditions. FEA of stents is frequently performed to determine the worst-case size for experimental fatigue (or durability) testing and differentiation of performance between designs. A finite element analysis is especially valuable in determining quantities that cannot be readily measured.
