- This paper resulted from research funded by an ERDF Project (IsWindTech, Grant Number X01692PR, £1,077,372). It is part of a series of papers which combines the classical Blade Element Method for calculating aerodynamic loads with Equivalent Beam Models and an early example of a publication reporting this approach. The resulting novel BEM-EBM aeroelastic model significantly enhanced computational efficiency in the analysis of aeroelastic characteristics under large blade deflections and geometric nonlinearities when compared to other competing simulation models. The PhD student involved in this study was subsequently appointed to the position of Research fellow in structural mechanics at Cranfield University.
