Tuning the Properties of Multi-Stable Structures Post-Fabrication Via the Two-Way Shape Memory Polymer Effect.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Multi-stable elements are commonly employed to design reconfigurable and adaptive structures, because they enable large and reversible shape changes in response to changing loads, while simultaneously allowing self-locking capabilities. However, existing multi-stable structures have properties that depend on their initial design and cannot be tailored post-fabrication. Here, a novel design approach is presented that combines multi-stable structures with two-way shape memory polymers. By leveraging both the one-way and two-way shape memory effect under bi-axial strain conditions, the structures can re-program their 3D shape, bear loads, and self-actuate. Results demonstrate that the structures' shape and stiffness can be tuned post-fabrication at the user's need and the multi-stability can be suppressed or activated on command. The control of multi-stability prevents undesired snapping of the structures and enables higher load-bearing capability, compared to conventional multi-stable systems. The proposed approach offers the possibility to augment the functionality of existing multi-stable concepts, showing potential for the realization of highly adaptable mechanical structures that can reversibly switch between being mono and multi-stable and that can undergo shape changes in response to a change in temperature.
