FSI-based structural optimization of thin bladed composite propellers

Lamination of thin bladed composite marine propellers necessitates dropping layers following thickness variation to produce lighter propeller with good elastic damping. Composite blade is subjected to multiaxial loads resulted from nonuniformly distributed hydrodynamic pressure that cause the blade...
