Abstract
A gas turbine engine has transition ducts. Between two adjacent transition ducts there are transition side grooves that extend in a radial direction. A side seal is radially inserted into the transition side grooves. The side seal resiliently engages the transition side grooves to accommodate a thermo-mechanical stress that develops between the two adjacent transition ducts.
