A process for manufacturing a preformed sheet having geometric surface features for a geometrically segmented abradable ceramic thermal barrier coating on a turbine engine component, the process comprising the steps of providing a preformed sheet material. The process includes forming a partially of geometric surface features in the sheet material. The process includes joining the sheet material to a substrate of the turbine engine component. The process includes disposing a thermally insulating topcoat over the geometric surface features and forming segmented portions that are separated by faults extending through the thermally insulating topcoat from the geometric surface features.

A blade outer air seal support includes, at least one arc body having a first portion and a second portion, a blade outer air seal mounting region defined at least partially between the first portion and the second portion, and an interface feature interfacing the first portion and the second portion. The interface feature is configured such that axially aligned forces are communicated between the first and second portions through the interface feature, bypassing the blade outer air seal mounting region.

A fan casing for a gas turbine includes an improved clipping member for attaching various fan case externals and units. The clipping member may include I-Shaped or C-shaped cross sectional stiffened rib sections that afford enhanced load carrying capabilities while providing mounting surfaces for being connected to structures of the fan case. The I-Shaped or C-Shaped cross sectional stiffened rib also affords an enhanced natural frequency tuning characteristic. Hardware may be formed within the clipping member and become an integral part of the structure which may be tuned to specific design preferences.

A section of a gas turbine engine includes a ceramic component and a metallic component situated adjacent the ceramic component. The ceramic component and the metallic component are situated outside of a core flow path of the gas turbine engine. The section of a gas turbine engine also includes an interface between the ceramic component and a metallic component and a mullite-based coating disposed at the interface. The coating provides thermal protection to the ceramic component and the metallic component, and provides thermochemical protection against interaction between the ceramic component and the metallic component. A gas turbine engine and a method of protecting components in a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.

A turbine engine component can include a surface comprising at least one edge and a coating disposed upon the surface that can extend to the edge. A spall break can be disposed along a line upon the surface adjacent the edge to prevent spallation of the coating from spreading from the edge onto the surface beyond the spall break. The spall break can comprise a discontinuity of the coating. A method of coating a turbine component can include preparing a substrate to receive a coating and selecting a fail location along the substrate for a coating. One or more coating can be applied to the substrate and a spall break can be incorporated into the one or more coatings. The spall break can comprise a line of discontinuity in the one or more coatings along the fail location.
