Computational Analysis of Mechanical Stress-Strain Interaction of a Bioresorbable Scaffold with Blood Vessel

Abstract Crimping and deployment of bioresorbable polymeric scaffold, Absorb, were modelled using finite element method, in direct comparison with Co-Cr alloy drug eluting stent, Xience V. Absorb scaffold has an expansion rate lower than Xience V stent, with a less outer diameter achieved after ball...
