DEFORMABLE STRUCTURE FOR ABSORPTION OF ENERGY FROM MECHANICAL AND/OR ACOUSTIC IMPACTS
The invention provides a deformable structure, such as a panel (11) or a shock absorber (20), for absorbing energy from a mechanical and/or acoustic impact comprising an inner core (13) and one or more external layers covering the inner core (13). The inner core (13) comprises a set of first segment...

Zusammenfassung: | The invention provides a deformable structure, such as a panel (11) or a shock absorber (20), for absorbing energy from a mechanical and/or acoustic impact comprising an inner core (13) and one or more external layers covering the inner core (13). The inner core (13) comprises a set of first segments (25) having a positive Poison's ratio and second segments (35) having a negative Poisson's ratio. The first and second segments (25, 35) are arranged alternately and joined between them so that the deformation received by one first segment (25) can be transmitted to an adjacent second segment (35) and vice versa. |
