Abstract: A system for forming material includes a housing including at least one wall defining an interior space. The housing is configured to contain a pressurized fluid in the interior space. The system also includes at least one tool configured to shape the material. The at least one tool is movable along a path from a first position external to the housing to a second position at least partially within the interior space. The system further includes a membrane extending at least partially in the path of the at least one tool.

Abstract: A rotor blade assembly including a first blade section including a joint end and a custom fit second blade section including a joint end, and a method of fabricating the rotor blade assembly is disclosed. One of the first blade section or the custom fit second blade section includes an inner surface defining a cavity. The cavity is configured to receive the joint end of the other one of the blade sections in an overlapping configuration to define an overlapping region and a mating joint. A joining means is used to secure the joint ends of the blade sections. A profile of the outer surface of the custom fit second blade section generally corresponds to the aerodynamic profile of the first blade section such that a substantially continuous aerodynamic profile is defined between the blade sections when the joint ends are configured in the overlapping configuration.

Abstract: A composite article including a composite component, a metallic component and one or more interlock components. The composite component including a plurality of composite plies and extending heightwise from a component base to a component tip and lengthwise between spaced apart component first and second edges, the composite. The metallic component including a first surface and a second surface and a plurality of openings formed therein extending from the first surface to the second surface. The metallic component including at least a portion substantially or fully embedded in the composite component. The one or more interlock components is interwoven through one or more of the plurality of openings in the metallic component and extending into and at least partially embedded in the composite component to provide an interlocking system between the composite component and the metallic component. A method of fabrication of a composite article is also provided.
