Numerical Simulation of Laser Transmission Welding-A Review on Temperature Field, Stress Field, Melt Flow Field, and Thermal Degradation.
Review in Polymers, 2023. 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
Laser transmission welding (LTW) is an excellent process for joining plastics and is widely used in industry. Numerical simulation is an important method and area for studying LTW. It can effectively shorten the experimental time and reduce research costs, aid in understanding the welding mechanism, and enable the acquisition of ideal process parameters. To enhance understanding of numerical simulation studies on LTW and facilitate research in this area, this paper presents a comprehensive overview of the progress made in numerical simulation of LTW, covering the following aspects: (a) characteristics of the three heat source models for LTW temperature field simulation, including surface heat source model, volumetric heat source model, and hybrid heat source model, along with the methods, results, and applications of temperature field simulation based on these models and experimental validation; (b) numerical simulation of thermal and residual stresses based on the temperature field; (c) numerical simulation of the melt flow field; and (d) predictive simulation of material degradation. The conclusion of the review and the prospects for further research work are eventually addressed.
