Mechanical Response Analysis of Ultra-Thin Asphalt Wearing Course Pavement Under Non-Uniform Loading Pressure.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
Traditional ultra-thin asphalt wearing course designs often oversimplify wheel loads as uniform pressures, neglecting critical non-uniform effects. This study establishes a 3D finite element model incorporating realistic non-uniform tire loading to reveal its mechanistic influence on pavement responses. Results demonstrate that non-uniform loading significantly alters stress states in ultra-thin layers, substantially elevating critical stresses compared to uniform assumptions. A novel Non-uniform Load Influence Factor (NLIF) accounting for thickness effects is developed to quantify these deviations. The analysis provides a foundation for revising material strength specifications and fatigue design criteria, contributing to improved performance and durability of ultra-thin pavement systems.
