Abstract | We developed a novel mathematical model to study the mechanical properties of endovascular stents in their expanded state. The model is based on the one-dimensional theory of slender curved rods. Stent struts are modeled as linearly elastic curved rods that satisfy the kinematic and dynamic contact conditions at the vertices where the struts meet. A Finite Element Method for a numerical computation of its solution was developed and used to study mechanical properties of two commonly used coronary stents (Palmaz-like and Xience-like stent) in their expanded, fractured state. A simple fracture (separation), corresponding to one stent strut being disconnected from one vertex in a stent, was considered. Our results show a drastic difference in the response of the two stents to the physiologically reasonable uniform compression and bending forces. In particular, deformation of a fractured Xience-like stent (with one strut separated from one vertex) is significantly larger than that of a fractured Palmaz-like stent when exposed to uniform compression and bending. This presents conditions which may be a precursor for the clinically observed complications associated with in-stent thrombosis and in-stent restenosis of fractured coronary stents. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
