Abstract

The paper presents the biomechanical analysis of a stent-oesophagus system. In particular, stresses and strains for the oesophageal stent (Z-type) reflecting its implantation technique were calculated. The obtained results are the basis for the optimization of the geometrical features of the stent and mechanical properties of the metallic biomaterial.
