Extreme Mechanical Properties of Regular Tensegrity Unit Cells in 3D Lattice Metamaterials.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
The study focuses on the identification of extreme mechanical properties of 3D lattice metamaterials based on regular tensegrity modules: 4-strut simplex, 3-strut simplex, expanded octahedron, truncated tetrahedron and X-module. The basis of the analysis is a continuum model which is used to find the equivalent elasticity matrices of the unit cells. For each examined tensegrity module a line of extreme properties is determined, which indicates the occurrence of the soft mode of deformation. Moreover, the eigenvectors corresponding to soft and stiff deformation modes are calculated and presented graphically. The obtained results are promising from the point of view of future creation of tensegrity lattices and metamaterials with extreme mechanical properties. One of the analysed materials is identified as quasi bimode, two as quasi trimodes, another one as a trimode and one more as a unimode.
