Micro Abstract:
Finite element method is a popular computation tool which has its own drawbacks. In recent years, a numerical method called isogeometric analysis (IGA) has been developed which bridges gap between CAD and FEM. Unlike FEM, IGA uses high-order and high-regular basis functions (nonuniform rational B-splines-NURBS). The aim of this project is efficient simulation of the deformation behavior of carotid NiTi stents using IGA which makes a step closer in realising realtime simulation of stents.
