Nonuniform device expansion and substantial untreated residual plaque in reference segments were associated with long-term adverse events following BVS implantation. Baseline imaging to identify the appropriate device landing zone and procedural imaging to achieve uniform device expansion if possible (e.g. through post-dilatation) may improve clinical outcomes of BVS implantation.

A calibrated internal state variable inelastic constitutive model was implemented into the finite element code to capture the brain behavior. Also, constitutive models for the horns were calibrated to experimental data from dry and wet horn keratin at low and high strain rates. By investigating responses in the different keratin material states that occur in nature, the bounds of the ram brain response are quantified. An acceleration as high as 607 g's was observed, which is an order of magnitude higher than predicted brain injury threshold values. In the most extreme case, the maximum tensile pressure and maximum shear strains in the ram brain were 245 kPa and 0.28, respectively. Because the rams do not appear to sustain injury, these impacts could give insight to the threshold limits of mechanical loading that can be applied to the brain. Following this motivation, the brain injury metric values found in this research could serve as true injury metrics for hum
