Nonlinear Aeroelastic Study of Stall Induced Oscillation in a Symmetric Airfoil

In this paper the aeroelastic stability of a wind turbine rotor in the dynamic stall regime is investigated. Increased flexibility of modern turbine blades makes them more susceptible to aeroelastic instabilities. Complex oscillation modes like flap/lead-lag are of particular concern, which give way to potential structural damage, see...
