With the continuous increasing size and flexibility of large wind turbine blades, aeroelasticity
has been becoming a significant subject for wind turbine blade design. There have been …

ASMART structure involves distributed actuators and sensors and one or more
microprocessors that analyze the responses from the sensors and use integrated control …

Rotating composite beams and blades have a wide range of applications in various
engineering structures such as wind turbines, industrial fans, and steam turbines. Therefore …

The unsteady vortex-lattice method provides a medium-fidelity tool for the prediction of non-
stationary aerodynamic loads in low-speed, but high-Reynolds-number, attached flow …

This paper discusses three recent updates to the variational asymptotic beam sectional
analysis (VABS). The first update is a change to the war** constraints in terms of three …

This work investigates the dynamic response of various rotating cylindrical structures using
low-and high-fidelity one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) finite element models …

A generalized, finite-element-based, cross-sectional analysis for nonhomogenous, initially
curved and twisted, anistropic beams is formulated from geometrically nonlinear, three …

The computer program Variational Asymptotic Beam Section Analysis (VABS) uses the
variational asymptotic method to split a three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity problem into a …

This paper describes a multibody dynamics approach to the modeling of rotorcraft systems
and reviews the key aspects of the simulation procedure. The multibody dynamics analysis …

The aeroelastic coupling effect is playing an increasingly important role in the aerodynamic
and aeroelastic characteristics of wind turbine blades owing to the increasing size of modern …
