This article describes computer 3D-modeling of a sinusoidal wire stent with spiral profile, study of its mechanical characteristics according to the load applied to the stent during the stenting procedure, and numerical analysis of the deflected mode. The stent material was set to medical steel X5CrNi18-10 and considered linearly isotropic. The influence of boundary conditions and geometric characteristics on the stent was analyzed, thus selecting the optimal helix angle and number of nodes.
