Novel Benchtop Tool Validates CM&S Stent Fracture Predictions: Case Study Webinar

Novel Fatigue-to-Fracture Benchtop Capability Supports Validation of CM&S Stent Fracture Load and Location Predictions

Regulatory Applications in Computational Modeling and Simulation

A novel benchtop capability able to intentionally fracture super-elastic nitinol stents in the pulsatile loading mode has been debuted by Cook Medical and Dynatek Labs, Inc. (Boudreaux et al. 2024; DOI: 10.1520/MPC20230116), permitting validation of finite-element analysis (FEA) predictions of fracture load and location. FEA was not only able to accurately predict fracture location, it also successfully predicted the percent diametric distension required to induce fracture. Please join Drs. Ray Boudreaux and Xuefeng Zhao as they talk through this exciting work.
