Modular impact attenuation sublayers: NikeRecent Research Landscape

High-velocity kinetic energy transfer causes structural failure and user injury in protective equipment. Engineering the sublayer density and material response mitigates force transmission through controlled deformation.

What technical problems is Nike addressing in Modular impact attenuation sublayers?

Inadequate localized impact protection

(3)evidences

Unprotected anatomical joints and surfaces suffer from concentrated kinetic energy during collisions. Reducing localized force transmission prevents acute musculoskeletal injury and equipment failure.
