  • Abstract
    The present study introduces a fabric-covered wind turbine blade design technology. The fabric-covered wind turbine blade is composed of metal or composite spars, ribs, and covering fabrics. In the present study its feasibility has been investigated by comparing the structural properties of the blade sections with those of the references. These properties are calculated by VABS which implements a nonlinear 3D beam in to a 2D cross sectional analysis and a 1D nonlinear beam analysis.
