A blade for a turbomachine includes a blade root portion for securing the blade to a rotatable annular outer drum rotor. The blade root portion includes one or more radial retention features for radially retaining each of the blade root portions within the rotatable annular outer drum rotor. Further, at least one of the radial retention feature(s) includes at least one sealing member integrated therewith.

A turbomachine, a computing system for a turbomachine, and a method for overspeed protection are provided. The turbomachine includes a first rotor assembly interdigitated with a second rotor assembly together operably coupled to a gear assembly. A plurality of sensors is configured to receive rotor state data indicative of one or more of a speed, geometric dimension, or capacitance, or change thereof, or rate of change thereof, relative to the first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly. A controller executes operations including receiving rotor state data from the plurality of sensors; comparing rotor state data to one or more rotor state limits; and contacting one or more of the first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly to a contact surface adjacent to the respective first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly if the rotor state data exceeds the rotor state limit.

A turbine rotor wheel for an aircraft turbomachine includes a rotor disk, an annular shroud extending around the disk, and blades arranged between the disk and the shroud. The the root of each of the blades has two tabs configured for attachment to the disk. The tabs are arranged upstream and downstream, respectively, of a wall of the disk, relative to the axis. The tab arranged upstream is engaged in a first recess of the disk and configured to cooperate by abutment with a peripheral edge of the first recess. The tab arranged downstream is engaged in a second recess of the disk and is configured to cooperate by abutment with a peripheral edge of the second recess.
