contents In this work, we investigate the effects of stent indentation on hemodynamic indicators in stented coronary arteries. Our aim is to assess in-silico risk factors for in-stent restenosis (ISR) and thrombosis after stent implantation. The proposed model is applied to an idealized artery with Xience V stent for four indentation percentages and three mesh refinements. We analyze the patterns of hemodynamic indicators arising from different stent indentations and propose an empirical frequency analysis of time-averaged WSS (TAWSS), oscillatory shear index (OSI), and relative residence time (RRT). We observe that higher indentations display higher frequency of critically low TAWSS and non-physiological OSI and RRT. Furthermore, an appropriate mesh refinement is needed for accurate representation of hemodynamics in the stent vicinity. The results provide physics-based evidence for the correlation between high indentation and ISR.
