【Abstract】 Purpose: This paper is to study the invivo deployment of the stent. Methods: Nonlinear finite element was used to simulate the invivo deployment. The expansion process of the stent was considered as composing of many extremely short equilibrium processes, where the loads on the stent was regarded as constants and the algorithm of BFGS was also adopted to solve the negative value of the stiffness appeared. At the same time, the boundary conditions suitable for the stent was used. To avoid the nonsymmetrical results of NFEA of the stent when the loads were irrational, the method proscribing displacement increment of a certain node to define load increment was introduced to the analysis. Finally, experiments were carried out to confirm the calculated results. Results: The simulation of deployment of the stent has accomplished well. The calculated results were consistent with those of experiments. Discussion: Using nonlinear finite element to simulate the deployment was feasible, which could help the design and use of the stent.更多还原
