Structural design of composite rotor blades with consideration of manufacturability, durability, and manufacturing uncertainties

A modular structural design methodology for composite blades is developed. This design method can be used to design composite rotor blades with sophisticate geometric cross-sections. This design method hierarchically decomposed the highly-coupled interdisciplinary rotor analysis into global and loca...
