Resumen

The explicit dynamic finite element method was utilized to investigate the deformation behaviour of a woven wire mesh tubular device that is used in a side-to-side anastomotic procedure for achieving gastrointestinal anastomosis. The numerical model was initially verified by comparison to experimental results that were obtained using a specialized testing mechanism. Once validated, the finite element model (FEM) was parameterized to ascertain the influence of several device parameters on its deformation behaviour. The importance of these parameters, as related to its optimal design for use in minimally invasive surgery (MIS), was subsequently ascertained and discussed.
