In the last two decades, numerical models have become well-recognized and widely
adopted tools to investigate stenting procedures. Due to limited computational resources …

One of the relevant phenomenon associated with in-stent restenosis in coronary arteries is
an altered haemodynamics in the stented region. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) offers …

Computational simulations of stenting procedures in idealized geometries can only provide
general guidelines and their use in the patient-specific planning of percutaneous treatments …

Bioresorbable stents represent a promising technological development within the field of
cardiovascular angioplasty because of their ability to avoid long-term side effects of …

Stent modeling represents a challenging task from both the theoretical and numerical
viewpoints, due to its multi-physics nature and to the complex geometrical configuration of …

In this manuscript we present a mathematical theory and a computational algorithm to study
optimal design of mesh-like structures such as metallic stents by changing the stent strut …

A mathematical model of a drug-eluting stent is proposed. The model considers a polymer
region, containing the drug initially, and a porous region, consisting of smooth muscle cells …

We propose a Navier--Stokes--Biot fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model to study the
interaction between an incompressible, viscous Newtonian fluid and a poroelastic medium …

In drug eluting stent technologies, an increased demand for better control, higher reliability,
and enhanced performances of drug delivery systems emerged in the last years and thus …

The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions represents a challenge for the interventional
cardiologists due to the lower rate of procedural success and the higher risk of restenosis …
