Advanced composite materials provide a wide range of design freedom by virtue of their anisotropy. For the structural design and optimization of an advanced composite rotor blade, computationally efficient analytical models that can simulate the behaviour of the blade are necessary. A reliable and computationally efficient in-house cross-sectional analysis code has been developed for applications in the preliminary analysis and structural optimization of composite rotor blades. Parametric studies emphasizing the influence of the changes made to the internal structure of the blade are presented to illustrate the variation of the elastic stiffnesses and the coupling stiffness terms as a function of the internal geometry changes. Box-beam and ...
