NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) vascular stent, with good bio-compatibility and super-elastic properties, has become an important medical device in clinical treatment of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases. The free expansion of stent in vessel involves the mechanical behavior of geometric large deformation related to the structure of super-elastic. In this paper, the nonlinear mechanical model for the substructure of NiTi shape memory alloy vascular stent is established, and the displacement deformation equation is derived. The geometric non-linearity of the structure is proved. Furthermore, the geometric nonlinear mechanical model is verified by numerical method. The mechanical analysis model of NiTi shape memory alloy vascular stent is widely used in the field of tracheal stent and so on.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
