A gas turbine engine includes bound assemblies (38) with an inner diameter ring (40), a strut (42), and an outer diameter ring (44). The strut (42) is connected to the inner diameter ring (40) and extends radially outward therefrom to connect to the outer diameter ring (44). A strain relief feature (48A, 48B) is disposed adjacent to or at the connection between the strut (42) and the inner diameter ring (40) and/or the outer diameter ring (44). The strain relief feature (48A, 48B) lengthens the arc segment of fillet curvature. For a constant thermal punch load, the lengthened arc segment of fillet curvature results in a decreased maximum strain in the bound assembly. |
