摘要: Various embodiments of a spiral shaped element and embedded wavy materials are disclosed for use in shock mitigating material to dissipate the energy associated with impact an object. The can be used helmets, bumpers, bullet proof vests, military armor, other applications. One embodiment, among others, is having plurality elements, each circular cross section, being tapered from large outside end small inside but also that induce shear waves mitigate pressure impulse.
