Abstract
A rotary component may comprise a first structure configured to rotate about an axis and a second structure configured to rotate about the axis. A support structure may be coupled to the first structure at a first attachment location and to the second structure at a second attachment location. The support structure may be configured to separate from the first structure and the second structure in response to a centrifugal force generated by the first structure and the second structure rotating about the axis.
