Simulation and Experimental Study of a Piezoelectric Stack Energy Harvester for Railway Track Vibrations.
Article in Micromachines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
As one of the most important modes of transportation, the safety of running trains and railway tracks is significant. It is essential to power sensors that detect and track health in remote areas. The vibration energy of the track structure is enormous, stable, and not limited by weather factors such as the sun and wind. A new type of arch beam piezoelectric stack energy harvester for railway systems is studied in this paper. Through simulation analyses and experimental verification of the energy harvester, the influences of external resistance, load, pre-stress, and load frequency on the energy harvesting performance of the piezoelectric energy harvester are discussed. When the frequency is less than 6 Hz, the energy capture efficiency is greatly affected by the frequency. When the frequency exceeds 6 Hz, the frequency has little effect and the load dramatically affects the energy capture efficiency. The pre-stress has little effect on the energy capture efficiency, but there is an optimal value at 4.5 kN. The energy harvester has an output power of 193 mW, a weight of 912 g, and the energy density can reach 211.8 μW/g. These results can provide a reference for subsequent experiments in the actual environment.
