ABSTRACT:
A reinforcing structure useful in the formation of an energy absorbing composite suitable for use as a motor vehicle body panel which resists deformation upon absorbing impact loads by distribution of a deforming load to areas of the composite surrounding the area of impact. The composite has a plurality of particulate, reinforcing members in a polymer matrix and at least one undulating, reinforcing, sheet member as a reinforcing structure between the external walls of the composite. The load distributing, particulate, reinforcing members and the undulating, reinforcing, sheet member components are retained in a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin matrix. Preferably, the load distributing components include at least one undulating, reinforcing sheet which is formed on a molding means having a first and second series of intersecting parallel axes so as to form an undulating sheet having alternating troughs and crests.
