  • High cycle fatigue design for gas turbine engines
    Patent number: 11230926
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for making gas turbine engine component with high cycle fatigue performance include selecting target airfoils while detuning other airfoils. The selective detuning can reduce resource intensity for realistic testing during build. Conforming detuning masses can reduce the need for outside resources.
    Type: Grant
