Abstract
A structural part dissipates energy delivered during an impact that compresses the part along an axis Z, including a web having two opposite surfaces. The part includes: a through-window extending between the opposite surfaces of the web, dividing the web into a first portion and a second portion respectively, arranged in series along the Z axis; and an energy-dissipation device, including a cutting element arranged within the window and able to cut at least one of the portions of the web into strips as a result of a compressive force exerted on the part along the Z axis, and an element for clearing away the strips thus formed.
