  • A design model for optimization of structurally and geometrically bend-twist coupled blades is presented. To this end, an anisotropic beam model is fed with a fully-populated cross-section stiffness matrix obtained with BECAS. The impact on AEP is presented. Moreover, the twist response of a thin-walled cylinder modeled with finite element shells with nodal offset was verified with the analytical solution.
