A method to optimise the materials layout of small wind turbine blades
This paper presents a method to optimise the material layout of a fibreglass-reinforced composite constructed small wind turbine blade. The method was developed with the intent of reducing blade mass without compromising the blade’s structural performance or longevity. The bi-directional evolutionar...
