Finite element modelling of in-stent restenosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 From the perspective of coronary heart disease, the development of stents has come significantly far in reducing the associated mortality rate, drug-eluting stents being the epitome of innovative and effective solutions. Within this work, the intricate process of in-stent restenosis is modelled considering one of the significant growth factors and its ...

Machine learning and reduced order modelling for the simulation of braided stent deployment [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Endoluminal reconstruction using flow diverters represents a novel paradigm for the minimally invasive treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The configuration assumed by these very dense braided stents once deployed within the parent vessel is not easily predictable and medical volumetric images alone may be insufficient to plan the treatment ...
