Magnesium (Mg) has emerged as an ideal alternative to the permanent implant materials
owing to its enhanced properties such as biodegradation, better mechanical strengths than …

In silico studies to perform structural analyses of coronary stenting have attracted the
attention of many researchers in the last 25 years. As a consequence, the finite element …

In-stent restenosis remains a major problem of arteriosclerosis treatment by stenting.
Expansion-optimized stents could reduce this problem. With numerical simulations, stent …

The high mortality of atherosclerosis-caused cardiovascular disease has promoted the
requirement of designing novel intravascular stents with comprehensive robust mechanical …

The great success of stents in treating cardiovascular disease is actually undermined by
their long-term fatigue failure. The high variability of stent failure incidence suggests that it is …

Current poly‐l‐lactide acid (PLLA) scaffolds have issues of inadequate mechanical strength
leading to thrombosis formation. Designing a novel bioabsorbable PLLA stent with a novel …

Polymeric bioresorbable stents (BRSs) can eliminate the long-term stent restenosis by
degrading after vascular remolding and have been recommended for the congenital heart …

Endovascular stents are the mainstay of interventional cardiovascular medicine.
Technological advances have reduced biological and clinical complications but not …

Heart stents are widely implemented for those patients who suffer from chronic heart
diseases. The primary failure of this biomedical device is its collapse during the operation …

This paper presents a computational fatigue assessment method of mooring chains under
tensile loading, it is composed of a mechanical analysis followed by a fatigue analysis. The …
