• Reduced stent fractures
• Minimized occurrence of restenosis
• Reduced the cost of physical testing by 10%
Design
Self-Expanding Stents
• Fast Pre-processing: Geometric wrapping for rapid
stent creation and design optimization capabilities
• Accurate: Nitinol material models for stent, and
hyper-elastic for vessel and plaque
• Robustness: Contact detection
• Open occluded vessels with minimal damage
• Optimize stent design to minimize stress/strain and
fatigue
• Accelerate regulatory approval
• Evaluate patient-specific delivery
