Modal testing of a simplified wind turbine blade

This paper examines the modal analysis techniques applied in experiments using a uniform and a stepped beam. These simplified shapes are representative of the a wind turbine blade. Natural frequencies have been identified, therefore designers can ensure those natural frequencies will not be close to...
