<p>A deformable element is provided. A shock absorbing panel 100 includes a deformable element. The deformable element comprises a deformable structure 112, 115 and a shear thinning material 113 within the deformable structure 112, 115. The deformable structure 112, 115 comprises one or more holes through which the shear thinning material 113 will exit the deformable structure and thereby allow deformation of the deformable element upon application of greater than a predetermined level of mechanical shock SHK to the deformable element.</p> |
