COMPUTATIONAL BIOMECHANICS: State-of-the-art in Stent Modeling

General aspects of endovascular stents: from design to clinic: The short course provides a brief overview of cardiovascular diseases and their treatment. Subsequently the (bio)mechanics of stents are explained and the important role computer simulations can play in their design is enlarged upon.
