P2 1 Whether Wonder Woman's Wearables Would Work

Abstract

In this paper we discuss the most appropriate modern-day material that Wonder Woman’s bracelets
would likely be made out of, according to the apparent characteristics and ability to reflect bullets
demonstrated in the comics. We decide that Carbon Nanotubes are the best material candidate
due their light weight nature and having a high Young’s Modulus allowing it to maintain a low
thickness while still absorbing a bullet’s energy elastically. This would be thin and light enough
to be wearable, but would compromise and not reflect the metallic appearance of the bracelets in
the comics.
