Zusammenfassung:	A device for absorbing kinetic energy for an aircraft structural element undergoing a dynamic impact. The device includes an outer enclosure made from a braided composite material configured to preserve its integrity after an impact, a foam core, contained in the outer enclosure and to at least partially fill the outer enclosure. The foam core is configured to at least partially absorb the kinetic energy generated by the impact. Reinforcing elements are integrated at least partially into the foam core to dissipate, combined with the form core, the kinetic energy generated by the impact. The reinforcing elements includes discontinuous threads inserted into the foam core by stitching, and each discontinuous thread includes an L- or T-shaped head, folded down outside the outer enclosure.
