Abstract: A diffuser case support structure for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The diffuser case support structure includes a fairing disposed circumferentially about a longitudinal axis. The fairing forms at least a portion of a fluid path between a compressor and a combustor of the gas turbine engine. The fairing defines a plurality of apertures extending through the fairing. At least one spoke extends through at least one respective aperture of the plurality of apertures. The at least one spoke is configured to couple an inner diffuser case and an outer diffuser case of the gas turbine engine.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a tube of an engine of an aircraft configured to transfer a fluid, a boss of the engine, and a shim coupled to at least one of the tube and the boss that is configured to maintain a gap between the tube and the boss when the engine is assembled.

Abstract: A rotor blade for a turbine engine includes an airfoil that is connected to a base. The base includes a platform, a neck and a fillet. The fillet extends along at least a portion of an intersection between the platform and the neck. The fillet has a radius that substantially continuously changes as the fillet extends from the platform to the neck.

Abstract: A turbine assembly includes a first turbine blade circumferentially adjacent to a second turbine blade. The first turbine blade includes a first platform with a first underplatform surface. The second turbine blade includes a second platform with a second underplatform surface. The first underplatform surface and the second underplatform surface at least partially defines a cavity. A damper with a platform rub surface is included adjacent the first underplatform surface and the second underplatform surface. A seal is included with a forward portion, an aft portion, and a damper interface portion therebetween. The damper interface portion extends along a damper underside and the forward portion and the aft portion adjacent the first underplatform surface and the second underplatform surface.

Abstract: A fencing system for confining climbing animals. The fencing system uses a plurality of vertical posts that are set in place along a fence line. Arch support brackets are provided that attach to the vertical posts. Each arch support bracket has an ascending section that climbs to an apex point and a descending section that descends from that apex point. Flexible plastic netting is suspended between the rigid supports that are created by the vertical posts and the arch support brackets. Flexible plastic netting is supported vertically by the vertical posts. Above the vertical posts, the flexible plastic netting is supported in an ascending angle to an apex point by each ascending section of the arch support brackets. From the apex point, the flexible plastic netting is supported in a descending angle to the free end of the arch support bracket.
