This paper studied the mechanical performance of four bioresorbable PLLA stents, i.e., Absorb, Elixir, Igaki–Tamai and RevaMedical, during crimping and expansion using the finite element method. Abaqus CAE was used to create the geometrical models for the four stents. A tri-folded balloon was created using NX software. For the stents, elastic–plastic behaviour was used, with hardening implemented...
