A fuel tank includes a structural body and a membrane. The membrane extends vertically between and is attached to a top wall and a bottom wall of the structural body, and substantially extends between a first side wall and a second side wall of the structural body. The membrane defines a plurality of venting apertures operable to allow liquid fuel to move therethrough. The membrane is flexible, and includes a length, measured between a top edge and a bottom edge of the membrane, that is greater than a height of the structural body, which is measured between the top wall and the bottom wall of the structural body. The flexibility of the membrane and the length of the membrane allow the membrane to flex and move to absorb kinetic energy of fuel moving within the structural body.
