Progressive Folding

Progressive Folding is a failure mode in energy absorption structures characterized by the sequential, controlled, and localized buckling of material layers or segments, distinguished from other deformation mechanisms by its regular, repeating fold formation that enhances energy dissipation efficiency during impact or compression loading.
