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

Adding discrete fibres to sand has been seen as a feasible technique to improve sand's strength as well as liquefaction resistance. Considering the anisotropic distribution of fibre orientations, the anisotropy in the liquefaction resistance of the reinforced sand is also introduced using fibres. Here, the triaxial compression and extension test results of unreinforced and fibre-reinforced sand in different density states are provided, from which the anisotropy in the liquefaction resistance of fibre-reinforced sand is demonstrated. Fibre reinforcement improves the liquefaction resistance of sand by introducing both the densifying effect and the confining effect. The inclusion of fibres increases both the slope and the intercept of the strength envelope in comparison with the unreinforced sand under triaxial compression, while the strength envelope is not affected by fibres under triaxial extension. Stress contribution of fibres makes the ESP of the composite under undrained loading reverse its direction to develop even though the phase transformation is absent. The stress ratio initiating the ESP reversal is irrespective of the fibre content but dependent on the density state under triaxial compression. Under triaxial extension, the stress ratio initiating the ESP reversal remains the same in the samples with varied density states and fibre contents. The mechanism correlating to the strength envelope and ESP reversal of the fibre-reinforced sand was demonstrated following a rule of mixture based constitutive modelling framework. By introducing an alternatively defined pore pressure ratio that incorporates the stress contribution of fibres, the liquefaction state of the fibre reinforced sand is reasonably assessed. Liquefaction remains absent in the sand once the fibres are mixed. The anisotropy in the liquefaction resistance of fibre-reinforced sand arises, as the predominant role played by the fibres to suppress the liquefaction is different when varied loading paths are involved, which is sourced from the anisotropic distribution of fibre orientations.
