Abstract
A gas turbine engine component such as a laminate airfoil having a static pressure transducer and having a plurality of structural fiber layers bonded with a polymer matrix composite. The transducer includes a lattice formed from a plurality of hypotubes aligned in a first direction and a plurality of reinforcing wires aligned substantially perpendicular to the hypotubes. The lattice is placed between at least some of the structural fiber layers prior to thermally processing into a cured polymer matrix laminate composite.
