Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2014172744A1] Armour (10) for dissipating energy associated with an impacting projectile, the armour (10) including an impact absorption layer (12) supported by a backing (14), the impact absorption layer including a plurality of macroscopic particles (16) and a plurality of microscopic particles (20) which are substantially encapsulated by an at least partially flexible matrix (18), the microscopic particles (20) and macroscopic particles (16) being arranged to interact with one another such that when at least one of the macroscopic particles (16) is moved during an impact, the movement is at least partially transferred to the microscopic particles (20) thereby assisting to dissipate the impact energy.
