Additional information

The paper identifies test methodologies and compression stress-strain characteristics for small diameter Nitinol wire. This is a requirement for the development of material constitutive models imbedded in FE techniques and supports the analysis and product development of the Terumo Vascutek anaconda device, used to prevent abdominal aneurysm rupture. This work has been integrated into Vascutek via a KTP project (KTP 8620) and EPSRC EP/H50009X/1. The work undrerpins Vascutek product development and has contributed to their success in Scottish Business Innovation of the year awards in 2013, (www.scottishbusinessawrds.co.uk, contact Tim Ashton VP Innovation, t.ashton@vascutek.com).
