The determination and evaluation of Nitinol constitutive models for finite element analysis [PDF]
Superelastic Ni-Ti (Nitinol) is a member of the shape memory alloy (SMA) family of metals. The physical properties of Nitinol are highly dependant on a number of factors, including manufacturing method, subsequent processing, operating temperature, and ...

The Boston All-in-One Medial Patellofemoral Complex Reconstruction: A Combined Medial Patellofemoral Ligament and Medial Quadriceps Tendon Femoral Ligament Dynamic Tensioning Technique Using Allograft. [PDF]
Abstract Recent anatomical understanding of the medial restraints of the patella has evolved over the last decade with a current focus on the medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament, a distinct anatomical structure to the medial patellofemoral ligament. These combine to form the medial patellofemoral complex. This technical note describes a technique

Investigation Of Interaction Between Nitinol Stent And A Vascular Plaque Using Finite Element Method
In this study, the interaction between the Nitinol stent and the artery with plaque was investigated using finite element method. The occurring pressure values during the cardiac contraction (systolic) and loosening (diastolic) were applied as loading to
