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

Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) embedded in polymer composite materials is a promising method for structural health monitoring (SHM). Conventionally, FBGs are treated as axial strain sensors with a constant sensitivity coefficient, which can lead to significant measurement errors for the multi-axial stress states. This study developed a general framework to calculate the axial strain sensitivity coefficient considering the local multiaxial strain state of the host composite materials, where the analytical strain transfer principle (STP) was integrated with the Opto-mechanical model of FBGs. The responses of embedded FBGs under hydrostatic pressure, biaxial compression, and biaxial tension conditions were validated by the experimental tests. The results further reveal the strong influence of the interfacial bonding state between the FBG and host composite material on the FBG response. This study advances the embedded FBG technology in SHM for composites.
