Modal properties and stability of bend–twist coupled wind turbine blades

Coupling between bending and twist has a significant influence on the aeroelastic response of wind turbine blades. The coupling can arise from the blade geometry (e.g. sweep, prebending, or deflection under load) or from the anisotropic properties of the blade material. Bend–twist coupling can be...
