Abstract
A support for a bearing that guides a shaft in a turbomachine is disclosed. The support includes an annular part made of a shape memory material which retains an initial shape when the load applied to it remains below a threshold value and which deforms, absorbing energy when the applied load becomes at least equal to the threshold value. The annular part is capable of reverting at least approximately to its initial shape when the applied load drops back below the threshold value.
