An energy dissipating device includes a guide defining a guide surface having a curved cross-section. A deformer is slideably supported by the guide surface of the guide in a compression stroke direction of the device. A stopper is fixedly attached to the device and arranged at a distance from the deformer in the compression stroke direction. An energy dissipating member is arranged between the stopper and the deformer in the compression stroke direction, and includes a first end configured to engage with the stopper and a second end configured to engage with the deformer in response to a force thereon in the compression stroke direction.
