| Abstract | Implantation of drug-eluting stents in curved blood vessels may cause changes in hemodynamics and drug distribution, and even provoke in-stent restenosis. Due to the complexity of building three-dimensional (3-D) curved stent model, few studies have gone through such numerical simulations. In this study, three virtual stent models with different bending angles (0°, 30° and 90°) were developed to numerically investigate the distribution of wall shear stress (WSS) and drug concentration. The results showed that (1) the low-WSS regions in the inner bend of the stent models increased with the bending angles; (2) the drug concentration differed between the inner and outer bends of the stents but irrespective to the changes of bending angle; (3) the pattern of drug concentration for the curved stents found similar to that of the straight stents, and the phenomenon, ‘proximal part low and distal part high’ in the drug concentration showed in both the straight and curved stents. The increase in bending angles from 30° to 90° had little effect on the WSS and drug concentration; however, the largest effect of the curved stents was the remarkable difference of drug concentration between the inner and outer bends of the stents—about 20 %. Hence, it is feasible that quick analysis focused on the straight stents instead of the curved 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.
