Abstract

In accordance with one implementation, a cushion 302 includes at least two columns 358, 374 of axially aligned cushioning elements 330, 332, 334, 340, 348, 350, 352, 354, 356 and one or more binding layers 342, 344 elastically connecting the at least two columns together. The binding layer may be oriented in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axial alignment at an intersection of two or more cushioning elements. In one implementation, the shear reduction may be directionally tuned so as to provide for different shear force mitigation in different directions.
