A gas turbine or compressor blade, includes a convex outer surface or suction side and a concave inner surface or pressure side, these sides being joined at their upstream ends by a leading edge and at their downstream ends by a trailing edge for the gases and terminating on a platform, one part of which includes a downstream fairing that includes at least one through-notch that extends substantially between a transverse line passing through the trailing edge and the downstream end of the fairing.

Gas turbine or compressor blade

Rotor blade for a compressor or a gas turbine, in particular for a turbojet engine, including a suction side and a pressure side, which are joined at their upstream ends by a leading edge and at their downstream ends by a trailing edge for the gases, a platform connecting the suction side and the pressure side to a blade root, and a stiffener formed beneath the downstream part of the platform and including at least one notch or a cut-away in line with the trailing edge, in order to reduce the stresses in the joint region between the aerofoil and the platform.
