Elasto-plastic analysis of stents : texture and grainsize effects on radial strength

A nonlinear finite element analysis of a stent was performed using ABAQUS® to analyze the elasto-plastic behavior during crimping and deploying of the stent and the effects of material properties on various characteristics like radial strength, recoil and foreshortening. Geomteric and material non-l...
