Abstract

A new model is proposed for elastic waves induced by a pulsating flow in a stenotic artery containing several stents. Dispersion properties of the waves depend on the stent structure-this feature is addressed in the present paper. Several vascular stenting procedures include overlapping stents; this configuration is also included in the model. The dispersion and transmission properties are analysed; the analytical derivations are accompanied by illustrative numerical examples.
