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

The directivity of the quasi-static component (QSC) is quantitatively investigated for evaluating the orientation of a micro-crack buried in a thin solid plate using the numerical simulation method. Based on the bilinear stress-strain constitutive model, a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model (FEM) is built for investigating the nonlinear interaction between primary Lamb waves and the micro-crack. When the primary Lamb waves at A0 mode impinge on the micro-crack, under the modulation of the contact acoustic nonlinearity (CAN), the micro-crack itself will induce QSC. The amplitude of the QSC generated can be used for directly charactering the micro-crack orientation. The finite element simulation results show that the directivity of the QSC radiated by the micro-crack is closely related to the orientation of the micro-crack, allowing for the characterization of micro-crack orientation without the need for baseline signals. The results indicate that the directionality of the QSC can be used for characterizing the orientation of the micro-crack. The amplitude of the QSC is affected by the contact area between two surfaces of the micro-crack. It is demonstrated that the proposed method is a feasible means for the characterization of micro-crack orientation.
