Vibrations of an isolated wind turbine blade using the finite element method

The finite element method is applied to an isolated and twisted wind turbine blade which is rotating in a vertical plane to determine its structural dynamic characteristics. The equations of motion are formulated for a rotating beam with flap and lead-lag degrees of freedom subjected to nonsymmetric...
