The effect of tensile and fluid shear stress on the in vitro degradation of magnesium alloy for stent applications
Magnesium alloys have gained great attention as biodegradable materials for stent applications. Cardiovascular stents are continuously exposed to different types of mechanical loadings simultaneously during service, including tensile, compressive and fluid shear stress. In this study, the in vitro d...
