← TechnologyFollowing bird strike damage to an aircraft turbofan, which mechanism increases uncontained engine failure risk?
A)High Cycle Fatigue accumulation
B)Compressor stall propagation
C)Rotor imbalance resonance✓
D)Turbine blade creep rupture
💡 Explanation
Rotor imbalance resonance increases dramatically because the bird strike causes uneven mass distribution exacerbating vibration. Therefore, destructive interference damages nacelle integrity, rather than simple material fatigue or stall originating in aerodynamics.
