Abstract:
A stator vane may comprise an airfoil extending between a first platform and a second platform, a first shear tube may extend through the airfoil and relatively orthogonal to the first platform and the second platform, wherein the first shear tube extends through the first platform and the second platform. In various embodiments, a second shear tube may extend through the airfoil into the first platform and the second platform parallel the first shear tube.
