1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In this study, iron-based metal matrix syntactic foam (MMSF) containing hollow glass microspheres as filler was investigated with respect to notch sensitivity aspects. The MMSF was produced by means of metal powder injection molding. The notch sensitivity was studied via (i) elastic-plastic fracture mechanics measurements (determination of R-curves based on three-point bending tests) and (ii) Charpy impact tests. In both cases, the samples were machined with two different (U- and V-shaped) notch geometries. The critical J-integral value was determined for both notch types, which resulted in lower fracture toughness values in the case of the V-shaped notches and thus notch sensitivity of the material. This finding can be connected to the characteristics of the deformation zone and the associated stress concentration at the tip of the machined notches. The results were confirmed by Charpy impact tests showing ~30% higher impact energy in the case of the U-shaped notch. The failure modes were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy. In contrast to the bulk material, the MMSF showed brittle fracture behavior.
