Embracing nonlinearity and geometry: a dimensional analysis guided design of shock absorbing materials

Abstract Design of shock absorbers requires a delicate balance between mechanical properties and geometric design, allowing them to be compressible yet strong enough to withstand crushing loads. Here, we present a unified framework for designing compact and lightweight shock absorbers by employing a...
