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.

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 deals with the effects of three low-carbon steel filler metals consisting of ferritic and austenitic phases on the weld joints of the tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding of Hardox 500 steel. The correlation between the microstructure and mechanical properties of the weld joints was investigated. For this purpose, macro and microstructure were examined, and then microhardness, tensile, impact, and fracture toughness tests were carried out to analyze the mechanical properties of joints. The results of optical microscopy (OM) images showed that the weld zones (WZ) of all three welds were composed of different ferritic morphologies, including allotriomorphic ferrite, Widmanstätten ferrite, and acicular ferrite, whereas the morphology of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) showed the various microstructures containing mostly ferrite and pearlite phases. Further, based on mechanical tests, the second filler with ferritic microstructure represented better elongation, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, impact toughness, and fracture toughness due to having a higher amount of acicular ferrite phase compared to the weld joints concerning the other fillers consisting of austenitic and ferritic-austenitic. However, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images on the fracture surfaces of the tensile test showed a ductile-type fracture with a large number of deep and shallow voids while on the fracture surfaces resulting from the Charpy impact tests and both ductile and cleavage modes of fracture took place, indicating the initiation and propagation of cracks, respectively. The presence of acicular ferrite as a soft phase that impedes the dislocation pile-up brings about the ductile mode of fracture while inclusions may cause stress concentration, thus producing cleavage surfaces.
