A seal segment for a turbine and an assembly for sealing the gaps between seal segments and stator vanes of a turbine. The seal segments have a plate-shaped wall, the first lateral surface of which faces the vane tips in the assembled state of the seal segments, is surrounded by a closed circumferential edge, and can be divided into four lateral wall sections, and the plate-shaped wall has a seal element which is arranged over the entire surface of the lateral surface. A number of seal lamellae which are secured on one side are provided on at least one of the lateral wall sections and/or on at least one of the seal lateral wall sections facing adjacent seal segments when the seal segments are assembled in a turbine so as to form a ring in order to reduce a flow along the corresponding lateral wall section.

A three-dimensional auxetic structure, comprising a plurality of adjoining hollow cells, each hollow cell having cell walls and a transversal cross section of the plurality hollow cells following a two-dimensional auxetic pattern, each cell wall comprising folding lines parallel to a plane containing the auxetic pattern such that peaks and valleys are defined in the cell walls and the cell walls being foldable along the folding lines.

Systems and methods are presented for acoustic dampening in a rotating machine. The rotating machine has a rotatable shaft defining an axis of rotation and a gas flowpath. A system comprises an acoustic panel affixed to an annular casing. The acoustic panel comprises an acoustic treatment member extending between a radially inner skin and radially outer skin. The radially inner skin extends the full axial and circumferential dimensions of the acoustic panel, and the acoustic treatment member overlays the entirety of the radially inner skin. The acoustic panel is positioned so that the radially outer skin abuts the casing, the abutting surfaces being configured to effect relative axial movement between the surfaces while maintaining contact between the surfaces. The acoustic panel is affixed in position to the casing by one or more fasteners passing through the casing and a portion of the radially outer skin.

A fan case assembly extend along and around a center axis. The fan case assembly may comprise a barrel extending along and around the center axis, the barrel configured to fasten to a flange of an engine case. The fan case assembly may comprise a fan track liner disposed radially inward of the barrel and a containment hook, wherein the containment hook is a discrete component separate from the barrel. The containment hook may include a front segment configured to fasten to the flange, and an axial segment disposed radially inward of the barrel. The axial segment may extend between the flange and the fan track liner and the front segment may extend radially outward from an end of the axial segment. The containment hook may also include a protruding segment extending radially inward from the axial segment.

A turbine stator sector includes a plurality of vanes extending along a radial direction between a first end and a second end and along an axial direction between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The sector further includes an internal shroud linked to the first end of the vanes and an external shroud linked to the second end of the vanes. The sector includes at least one annular portion forming all or part of the internal shroud or of the external shroud. The annular portion includes a first partition present at the junction with the first or the second end of the vanes and a second partition held spaced from the first partition along the radial direction by a three-dimensional structure including a plurality of cutouts.

A method for producing a vibration-damping structure combination for damping vibrations for movable masses, having a first structure and a further structure, the further structure movable within a stop surface defined by a first structure surface of the first structure. The method includes a) providing the first structure, having the first structure surface and which defines a coating surface of a coating at least in some sections; b) coating the first structure surface of the first structure with the coating, the coating surface of the coating being applied such that a cavity is formed; c) filling the cavity with the filler; d) curing the filler until the further structure having a further structure surface is formed, which lies against the coating surface; and e) removing the coating, the further structure thus being movable relative to the first structure within the stop surface defined by the first structure surface.

A method of forming a blade outer air seal includes applying a cavity layer that has a plurality of cavities to a radially inner side of a seal body. The cavity layer is coated with an abradable coating.
