FEA of polymeric materials using a scaffold design with 150 μm strut thickness. (a) The expansion and (b) scaffolding of the 15% SA-BaSO4/PLLA BRS. (c) Scaffold fracture happened to 15% BaSO4/PLLA BRS during expansion and the marked part has been zoomed in to show the fractures. (d) The MP train contour of 15% SA-BaSO4/PLLA BRS at maximum expansion (PLLA-based BRS has a similar MP train contour, hence is represented by the same figure here).
