Structural components designed to absorb energy and shield a more valuable structure ideally require mechanical properties that combine relatively high load-carrying capacity followed by practically zero stiffness. This ensures specified quantity may be absorbed within limited displacement any stress transfer the is minimized. Material damage has been historically mobilized provide such properties, but this obviously renders single-use. By contrast, mobilization of elastic instability can...
