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

Magnetically coupled resonant wireless power transmission (MCR-WPT) is an ideal solution for underwater wireless power transmission (UWPT). However, due to the conductivity of seawater, eddy current loss significantly reduces system transmission efficiency. This study develops an analytical estimation method to derive explicit expressions for eddy current loss and transmission efficiency, characterize their dependence on key parameters, and analyze the resonance frequency characteristics of the MCR-WPT system under different conductivities. The optimal resonant frequency and transmission efficiency improvement under variable-conductivity underwater environments are investigated. First, the coil model is simplified to its equivalent form. Based on the Biot-Savart law, the magnetic field is calculated by integral operations, and an analytical model of the eddy current loss is formulated. Consequently, the expression for the system transmission efficiency in seawater at different depths is derived, and a specific resonance frequency is identified at which the efficiency attains its maximum value. An underwater coil model is established using Ansys Maxwell finite element analysis (FEA), and the effects of electrical conductivity and resonance frequency on eddy current loss and system efficiency are analyzed. Finally, an underwater experimental platform is constructed. A freshwater solution and seawater solutions with varying electrical conductivities are prepared using artificial sea salt and pure water; frequency-sweeping experiments are then conducted. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical analysis and simulations, thereby validating the accuracy of the proposed model.
