    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fan blade (3) having a structure made from a composite material, comprising a fibrous reinforcement (5), which is obtained by three-dimensional weaving of warp strands and weft strands, and a matrix in which the fibrous reinforcement (5) is embedded, wherein—the fibrous reinforcement (5) comprises a first portion (14) forming the trailing edge (9) of the structure made from a composite material and a second portion (15) forming its leading edge (8), and wherein—the warp strands of the fibrous reinforcement (5) comprise first strands (12) having a predetermined stiffness and second strands (13) having a greater stiffness than that of the first strands (12), the first portion (14) comprising all or part of the first strands (12) and being devoid of second strands (13) while the second portion (15) comprises all or part of the second strands (13).

    Abstract: Blade made of composite material, with an integrated platform, for an aircraft turbine engine, including a root connected to an aerofoil and having a connection platform between the root and the aerofoil, the root having a generally elongate shape along an axis (A) of elongation, the aerofoil having a curved cross-sectional shape and including a pressure face and a suction face, the platform including a first portion extending on the pressure-face side of the aerofoil and including a first longitudinal free edge and a second opposite longitudinal edge for connecting to the rest of the blade, the platform including a second portion extending on the suction-face side of the aerofoil and comprising a third longitudinal free edge and an opposite fourth longitudinal edge for connecting to the rest of the blade, wherein the first longitudinal free edge is concave and the third longitudinal free edge is convex, and, for any plane (P, P′) perpendicular to the axis of elongation and intersecting the platform, the distance (L1, L2; L1′, L2′) between the first and second edges, on the one hand, and the distance between said third and fourth edges, on the other hand, are identical in the plane considered.
