Hello Kris,
The ADINA nonlinear FEA and Heat Transfer System is used extensively in
this area. Have a look at:
"Simulation of in vito Loading Conditions of NITINOL Vascular Stent
Structures"; Computers & Structures Vol. 64, No 5/6, pp 1005-1011, 1997.
This is includes material information and comparison of lab results against
the ADINA analysis.
Regards,
Jas
