Abstract:
Disclosed herein are wearable articles and methods for the manufacture and use thereof. The wearable articles can comprise compression elements, gripping elements, and support elements containing a rate-sensitive materials which can operate to prevent injury.

Claim (Index 26):
A method for mounting an article on a body of a subject, comprising:\n a) providing the article comprising\n i) a base layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface, wherein the interior surface has a first coefficient of friction (\u03bc 1 ) relative to a body surface of the subject, and wherein the base layer has a first modulus of elasticity (E1); \n ii) at least one gripping element coupled to the interior surface of the base layer, wherein the at least one gripping element is configured to contact a body of the subject, and wherein the at least one gripping element has a second coefficient of friction (\u03bc 2 ) relative to the body surface, wherein \u03bc 2  is greater than \u03bc 1 ;\n iii) at least one compression element coupled to the base layer, wherein the at least one compression element has a second modulus of elasticity (E2) that is greater than E2; and \n iv) at least one support element comprising a non-Newtonian material coupled to the base layer; and \n b) mounting the article on the body of the subject, wherein when mounted on the body of the subject, the interior surface and the at least one gripping element contact the body surface of the subject at \u03bc 2  greater than \u03bc 1 .
