Abstract
In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a disk, a coupling member and a set of blades. The coupling member has a first surface and a second surface, and defines a set of openings between the first surface and the second surface. The first surface is configured to be coupled to the outer surface of the disk. A portion of each blade from the set of blades is disposed within an opening from the set of openings when the first surface of the coupling member is coupled to the outer surface of the disk such that the blade is coupled to the disk.
