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

This paper proposes a dynamic drop weight impact simulation to predict the impact response of 3D printed polymeric sandwich structures using an explicit finite element (FE) approach. The lattice cores of sandwich structures were based on two unit cells, a body-centred cubic (BCC) and an edge-centred cubic (ECC). The deformation and the peak acceleration, referred to as the g-max score, were calculated to quantify their shock absorption characteristic. For the FE results verification, a falling mass impact test was conducted. The FE results were in good agreement with experimental measurements. The results suggested that the strut diameter, strut length, number and orientation, and the apparent material stiffness of the lattice cores had a significant effect on their deformation behavior and shock absorption capability. In addition, the BCC lattice core with a thinner strut diameter and low structural height might lead to poor shock absorption capability caused by structure collapse and border effect, which could be improved by increasing its apparent material stiffness. This dynamic drop impact simulation process could be applied across numerous industries such as footwear, sporting goods, personal protective equipment, packaging, or biomechanical implants.
