Abstract

A composite case for a gas turbine engine includes an inner structure assembly defining an impact containment zone. The inner structure assembly is configured to circumscribe a plurality of rotatable blades of the gas turbine engine and to receive blade fragments in an event of blade failure. The inner structure assembly includes one or more layers containing a resin impregnated therein, and an outer structure assembly surrounding the inner structure assembly and integrally molded thereon. The outer structure assembly includes one or more layers containing a resin impregnated therein. One or more layers of the inner and the outer structure assemblies include resin reinforced by nanoparticles.
