- This paper presents the first experiment of liquid intrusion into nanoporous zeolites under low-rate impact. It proves that this novel energy absorption technology can be used to protect against realistic mechanical impact. Diverse applications of this technology were developed afterwards, demonstrated by two further publications on its implementations (DOI: 10.1038/srep26694, DOI: 10.1177/1056789516683539) and four patents applying it to address the challenges of vehicle safety and injury protections (CN104228622B, CN104228929B, CN104228727B, CN204161473U). It also formed the basis of a high-profile research fellowship (KC Wong Fellowship, Oxford, £118k).
