Re: Flapwise/Edgewise Stiffness Calculation
Hello, I have created a shell FEM model of a wind turbine composite blade in Calculix. I would now like to calculate blade properties to use in ElastoDyn. Is there a suggested way to approach this? Calculating edgewise & flapwise stiffness and structural twist needed in ElastoDyn does not seem l...
