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

This study explores the similarity of the fragmentation effect of a reactive inner core PELE (RIC-PELE) when penetrating a steel plate by measuring the broken length of the jacket after perforating the steel plate and the dispersion radius of the jacket fragments behind the steel plate. Based on the dimensional theory, the dimensionless functions of these two physical quantities were analyzed and established. On the basis of verifying the validity of numerical simulation, the penetration and deflagration damage effects of five scale models were simulated on the ANSYS/Autodyn 17.0 software platform, and the dimensional analysis was verified. In the obtained dimensionless functions, the independent variables are all geometric dimensionless quantities. The simulation results reveal that, within the impact velocity range of 900-1900 m/s, the dimensionless broken length of the jacket and the dimensionless dispersion radius of jacket fragments behind the target are approximately equal in different scale models at the same velocity; these values fall within error margins of ±7% and ±9% of the reference model, respectively, and both dimensionless quantities exhibit an approximately linear positive relationship with impact velocity. This indicates that when ignoring the size effect caused by the strain rate effect of the materials, the geometric similarity law of the fragmentation effect of a RIC-PELE penetrating a steel plate essentially holds, thereby verifying the correctness of the dimensional analysis.
