A computational study of fatigue resistance of nitinol stents subjected to walk‐induced femoropopliteal artery motion

Fatigue resistance of nitinol stents implanted in femoropopliteal arteries is a critical issue because of their harsh biomechanical environment. Limb flexions due to daily walk expose the femoropopliteal arteries and, subsequently, the implanted stents to large cyclic deformations, which may lead to...
