Abstract: An impact resistant article is disclosed. The impact resistant article includes a body, with the body including a side wall and a base wall extending from the side wall. The base wall includes an exterior surface. The impact resistant article also includes an energy absorbing member, and in certain embodiments, includes a plurality of energy absorbing members each extending along a respective central axis from the exterior surface of the base wall to a respective distal end. Each of the energy absorbing members define an elliptical cross-sectional configuration transverse to the central axis of respective energy absorbing members. In certain embodiments, the energy absorbing members are spaced from each other such that during an impact to one of the energy absorbing members, the impacted one of the energy absorbing members absorbs energy independently of the other energy absorbing members.
