Energy absorption is a research area that focuses on understanding how materials and structures can efficiently absorb and dissipate energy under various dynamic loading conditions. This research is important for developing materials and designs that can withstand impact, shock, and other high-energy events, such as car crashes or explosions. Researchers in this field study the mechanical behavior of materials and structures, the mechanisms of energy absorption, and the factors that influence their ability to absorb energy, such as material properties, geometry, and loading conditions. The goal of energy absorption research is to develop lightweight and cost-effective solutions for enhancing the safety and performance of various applications, such as automotive, aerospace, and protective equipment.
