    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a turbine section configured to rotate about an engine axis relative to an engine static structure. A fan section is configured to rotate about the engine axis relative to the engine static structure. A geared architecture operatively connects the fan section to the turbine section. The geared architecture includes an input gear and an output gear both configured to rotate about the engine axis. A set of idler gears are arranged radially outward relative to and operatively coupling with the input and output gears.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine comprises a lower pressure compressor and a higher pressure compressor. A single turbine drives both the lower pressure compressor and the higher pressure compressor through a gear reduction. The gear reduction includes an actuator and at least two available speeds, such that the lower pressure compressor can selectively be operated at either of at least two speeds relative to the higher pressure compressor. A method of operating a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a segmented radial seal assembly that includes at least two segments, each segment having a first end and a second end at opposite ends. A first segment first end has a protruding feature and defines a tangential vector from a circumferential ring that is formed by the segmented radial seal. The protruding feature defines a curved face having at least a first axis of curvature that is parallel to the tangential vector. The second segment second end has a recessed feature that is matingly engageable to the first segment first end, thereby forming a first radial seal segment joint. The segmented radial seal assembly is configured to surround a shaft.
