Abstract: A turbine for a gas turbine engine includes, among other things, a shaft rotatable about a longitudinal axis, a turbine rotor including one or more rows of turbine blades and a disk assembly coupled to the shaft. The disk assembly includes one or more disks each having an attachment region extending radially between an inner boundary and an outer boundary, the outer boundary is established by an outer periphery of the respective disk, the attachment region defines an array of slots distributed about the outer periphery, each of the slots extends radially inwardly from the outer boundary to the inner boundary, and each of the slots is dimensioned to receive a root section of a respective one of the turbine blades to mount the turbine blades to the disk assembly.

Abstract: A disclosed method of forming a ceramic article includes forming a pre-ceramic polymer article within a mold tool, and performing a first pyrolizing step on the initial pre-ceramic polymer article to form a ceramic article. The method further includes performing at least one pre-heat treatment polymer infiltration and pyrolizing (PIP) cycle on the ceramic article and an initial heat treatment cycle of the ceramic article after the at least one pre-heat treatment PIP cycle. Subsequent PIP cycles and heat treatment cycles are performed in combination to form a ceramic article including a desired density.

Abstract: An airfoil includes a CMC airfoil wall that defines a platform, a root that extends radially from the platform, and an airfoil section that extends radially from the platform opposite the root. The CMC airfoil wall includes a wishbone-shaped fiber layup structure. The wishbone-shaped fiber layup structure includes first and second arms that merge into a single leg. The first and second arms are comprised of a network of fiber tows, and the single leg includes fiber tows from each of the first and second arms that are interwoven in the single leg. The single leg forms a portion of the root, and the first and second arms extend in opposite directions from the single leg and form a portion of the platform.
