    Abstract: A fan blade having an opening on one side exposing one or more cavities, and a composite cover that fits over the opening, is provided. The composite cover has a variable thickness resulting from the layering of cover plies having different shapes, and is designed to achieve a lightweight fan blade having an optimal level of stiffness.

    Abstract: An airfoil includes a body that has rib nodes that each define a node cavity therein. A cover panel is carried on the body over the rib nodes. The cover panel includes tabs that project into the node cavities. Plugs are disposed in the node cavities and pinch the tabs against the node cavities to lock the cover panel on the body.

    Abstract: A composite article including a multiple of composite layers impregnated with a polymer matrix; and a nanotube material that facilitates a mechanical interlock between at least two of the multiple of composite layers. A method of manufacturing a composite article including a multiple of composite layers within a polymer matrix; and distributing a nanotube material between at least two of the multiple of composite layers to facilitate a mechanical interlock between the at least two of the multiple of composite layers adjacent an otherwise relatively low strength interlaminar interface region of the composite article.

    Abstract: An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes a blade body, a leading edge sheath, and an energy absorbing insert. The blade body has a pressure side and a suction side that each between a forward portion and a trailing edge. The leading edge sheath has a leading edge portion that is spaced apart from the forward portion, a first arm that engages the pressure side, and a second arm that engages the suction side. A cavity is defined between the leading edge portion, the first arm, the second arm, and the forward portion. The energy absorbing insert is disposed within the cavity and improves the impact resistance of the airfoil.
