3. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein a circumferential width of the first gusset is between 20% and 40% of a circumferential width of the first radially extending protrusion.

4. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the first arcuate segment further comprises:

a second wall located at a forward end of the first arcuate segment; and

a second hook extending from the second wall.

5. The blade outer air seal of claim 4 , wherein the first arcuate segment further comprises a feather seal slot defined, at least partially, by the first wall, the second wall, and a circumferential surface extending between the first wall and the second wall.

6. The blade outer air seal of claim 5 , wherein a second arcuate segment of the plurality of arcuate segments is disposed circumferentially adjacent to the first arcuate segment, and wherein an aft wall of the second arcuate segment comprises a fourth radially extending protrusion located at a circumferential end of the aft wall of the second arcuate segment, and wherein the fourth radially extending protrusion is circumferentially adjacent to the first radially extending protrusion.

7. The blade outer air seal of the claim 6 , further comprising a feather seal disposed between the first arcuate segment and the second arcuate segment.

8. A gas turbine engine, comprising:

an engine casing structure; and

a turbine disposed radially inward of the engine casing structure, the turbine comprising:

a blade configured to rotate about a central longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine, and

a blade outer air seal disposed radially outward of the blade, the blade outer air seal comprising an arcuate segment, wherein a first radial distance between the engine casing structure and a first protrusion extending from an aft wall of the arcuate segment is less than a second radial distance between the engine casing structure and a second protrusion extending from the aft wall, wherein the arcuate segment includes a hook extending from the aft wall of the arcuate segment, and wherein a radially outward surface of the hook is radially inward of a midpoint of the aft wall of the arcuate segment, the midpoint being located halfway between a radially inward surface of the arcuate segment and a radially outward surface of the second protrusion.

9. The gas turbine engine of claim 8 , wherein the first protrusion is located proximate a circumferential end of the arcuate segment.

10. The gas turbine engine of claim 8 , wherein the blade outer air seal further comprises a gusset extending from the aft wall.

11. The gas turbine engine of claim 10 , wherein a radial height of the gusset as measured from the radially inward surface of the arcuate segment is between 50% and 70% of a radial height of the first protrusion as measured from the radially inward surface of the arcuate segment.

12. A turbine for a gas turbine engine, comprising:

a blade;

a blade outer air seal disposed radially outward of the blade, the blade outer air seal comprising an arcuate segment, the arcuate segment including:

an aft wall comprising a first radially extending protrusion and a second radially extending protrusion, the first radially extending protrusion being located proximate a circumferential end of the aft wall, and

an aft hook extending aft from the aft wall, wherein a radially outward surface of the aft hook is radially inward of a midpoint of the aft wall, the midpoint of the aft wall being located halfway between a radially inward surface of the arcuate segment and a radially outward surface of the second radially extending protrusion; and

a turbine case disposed around the blade outer air seal, the turbine case comprising a case hook, wherein a first radial distance between the case hook and the first radially extending protrusion is less than a second radial distance between the case hook and the second radially extending protrusion.

13. The turbine of claim 12 , wherein the blade outer air seal further comprises a gusset extending from the first radially extending protrusion.
