Dynamic Analysis of Tapered Thin-Walled Beams Using Spectral Finite Element Method

Tapered thin-walled structures have been widely used in wind turbine and rotor blade. In this paper, a spectral finite element model is developed to investigate tapered thin-walled beam structures, in which torsion related warping effect is included. First, a set of fully coupled governing equations...
