A flow path component assembly includes a flow path component that has a platform that extends from a first circumferential side to a second circumferential side. The platform has a first radius of curvature between the first circumferential side and the second circumferential side. A coating is arranged on a portion of the platform near the first circumferential side. The coating has a second radius of curvature. The second radius of curvature is larger than the first radius of curvature.

Fan blades for frangibility are disclosed. An example airfoil for use in a gas turbine engine includes a root portion to be disposed adjacent to a disk of the gas turbine engine, a tip portion including a cavity disposed therein, and wherein the tip portion and cavity are configured to fragment when exposed to a threshold force corresponding to a high-stress event.

A method for forming a metallic structure having a secondary component includes positioning the secondary component on a main formation surface of a main tool, the main formation surface corresponding to a desired shape of a first layer of material. The method also includes depositing a layer of material on the secondary component and the main formation surface using a cold-spray technique such that the layer of material bonds to the secondary component. The method also includes removing the layer of material and the secondary component to form the metallic structure.

An assembly for forming a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a layup tool including a main body extending along a longitudinal axis and a flange extending radially from the main body, the flange defining an edge face slopes towards the main body to an axial face. At least one compression tool has a tool body having a first tool section and a second tool section extending transversely from the first tool section. The first tool section is translatable along a retention member in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the edge face such that relative movement causes the second tool section to apply a first compressive force on a composite article trapped between the axial face of the flange and the second tool section. A method of forming a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.
