Predicting Corrosion Delamination Failure in Active Implantable Medical Devices: Analytical Model and Validation Strategy

The ingress of body fluids or their constituents is one of the main causes of failure of active implantable medical devices (AIMDs). Progressive delamination takes its origin at the junctions where exposed electrodes and conductive pathways enter the implant interior. The description of this interfa...
