Probable cause
the fatigue failure of the rivets used to secure the inner casting forward static seal to the 1st-stage low-pressure turbine support/nozzle assembly. The failure of the rivets allowed the forward static seal to machine a groove into the 2nd-stage high-pressure turbine disk to a depth that the disk could not withstand the operating loads, eventually leading to a disk burst and a high pressure turbine failure.
