Turbine and compressor casing/housing abradable component embodiments for turbine engines, have abradable surfaces with ridges projecting from the abradable surface, separated by grooves. The ridges have one or both sidewalls inclined against the opposing turbine blade tip rotational direction for redirecting and/or dissipating blade tip gap leakage airflow energy. In some embodiments the ridge tip and/or groove base have inclined profiles for redirecting airflow leakage away from the blade tip gap. In some embodiments, the inclined ridge tip profile provides a progressive wear zone that increases abradable surface area as the inclined ridge is abraded by the rotating blade tip.
