Multiscale modelling of stent/vessel interactions
Angioplasty with stenting re-opens stenosed arteries, but in-stent restenosis remains a common negative outcome. Correlations between local mechanical stimuli and ISR have been reported, explained by mechanotransduction mechanisms that influence cell behaviour. This thesis investigates the loads imp...
