Resumen:
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has been widely used to investigate both the mechanical behaviour of vascular stents and the interaction between stents and the vessel wall. A different approach allowing the prediction of the stent released shape, useful for fluid dynamics analyses, is based on simplex deformable meshes. In particular, this Fast Virtual Stenting (FVS) methodology has been successfully applied with fast execution times for virtual stent release in real vessel geometries. As this method does not explicitly consider all the structural issues, a proper assessment of its results is required. In this work we quantify the differences between FEA and FVS method.
