The accumulation of particles in ureteric stents is mediated by flow dynamics: full-scale computational and experimental modeling of the occluded and unoccluded ureter

<p>Ureteric stents are clinically deployed to restore urinary drainage in the presence of ureteric occlusions. They consist of a hollow tube with multiple side-holes that enhance urinary drainage. The stent surface is often subject to encrustation (induced by crystals-forming bacteria such as...
