Design and evaluation of Nitinol intracranial stent

An intracranial stent, intended for delivery into the torturous blood vessels in the mid brain, was designed and evaluated in ABACUS using a simplified linear elastic model of nitinol. Utilizing nitinol's unique properties and incorporating design features that allowed lateral stretching and co...
