Idealized 3D Auxetic Mechanical Metamaterial: An Analytical, Numerical, and Experimental Study.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Mechanical metamaterials are man-made rationally-designed structures that present unprecedented mechanical properties not found in nature. One of the most well-known mechanical metamaterials is auxetics, which demonstrates negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) behavior that is very beneficial in several industrial applications. In this study, a specific type of auxetic metamaterial structure namely idealized 3D re-entrant structure is studied analytically, numerically, and experimentally. The noted structure is constructed of three types of struts-one loaded purely axially and two loaded simultaneously flexurally and axially, which are inclined and are spatially defined by angles θ and φ. Analytical relationships for elastic modulus, yield stress, and Poisson's ratio of the 3D re-entrant unit cell are derived based on two well-known beam theories namely Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko. Moreover, two finite element approaches one based on beam elements and one based on volumetric elements are implemented. Furthermore, several specimens are additively manufactured (3D printed) and tested under compression. The analytical results had good agreement with the experimental results on the one hand and the volumetric finite element model results on the other hand. Moreover, the effect of various geometrical parameters on the mechanical properties of the structure was studied, and the results demonstrated that angle θ (related to tension-dominated struts) has the highest influence on the sign of Poisson's ratio and its extent, while angle φ (related to compression-dominated struts) has the lowest influence on the Poisson's ratio. Nevertheless, the compression-dominated struts (defined by angle φ) provide strength and stiffness for the structure. The results also demonstrated that the structure could have zero Poisson's ratio for a specific range of θ and φ angles. Finally, a lightened 3D re-entrant structure is introduced, and its results are compared to those of the idealized 3D re-entrant structure.
