STENT expansion inside artery
STENT expansion inside artery
(OP)
Good morning everyone
I am a student working in determination of fatigue in stents inside coronary artery using Abaqus
Things I have done - modelling of artery and stent, Using ART plugin, expansion and crimping of stent
Now I am working to do the expansion inside artery, working in contact using ART plugin. I am stuck here. If anyone is interested i can upload my inp files and figures. I need some suggestions whether on to create a new subroutine for the contact or ART plugin would just help me do it. I was just trying with the subroutine provided by the plugin but not reaching anywhere. Anyone with experience on that plugin please reply to this thread
Thanks

RE: STENT expansion inside artery
I was going to do that but I have run into other problems.
I have subroutine (Uhyper)for arterial layers and rsurfu for ART plugin. A quick goggle search had me combining those two subroutines in one file just copy and paste, since they are not related. I did that and i have the error now 'problem during compilation'. so something is not right. Now I know those two work just fine when i run them separately so what am i missing here.
