摘要: Increasing the efficiency of wind turbines will be vital for energy sector to continue growing. The drive increased is pushing turbine manufacturers shift from glass fibre composite blades towards carbon/glass fibre-hybrid blades. This brings significant challenges in terms optimising design and understanding failure these new blade materials. review therefore surveys literature on composites, with an emphasis aspects that are relevant tensile, flexural, compressive, fatigue performance critically assessed areas future research identified. Numerical simulations composites have reached a reasonable maturity tensile failure, but progress required failure. Fatigue particular, requires more careful attention both modelling experimental point view.
