The Crimping and Expanding Performance of Self-Expanding Polymeric Bioresorbable Stents: Experimental and Computational Investigation
Polymeric bioresorbable stents (PBRSs) are considered the most promising devices to treat cardiovascular diseases. However, the mechanical weakness still hampers their application. In general, PBRSs are crimped into small sheathes and re-expanded to support narrowed vessels during angioplasty. Accor...
