Abstract
In the present study results of a modal test campaign involving four identical rotor blades of 20 m length with geometric bend-twist coupling are reported. Design, realisation, and post-processing of the experiments have been carried out under careful consideration of a pre-existing FE shell model. Modal data is obtained at two different stages of the manufacturing process and for one blade in two separate boundary conditions, i.e. free-free in elastic suspensions and clamped to a test rig. Due to the high sensor density in both configurations, the identified normal modes do not only include coupled eigenforms but also mode shapes illustrating cross-sectional vibrations; the latter attributed to the deflection of the blade shells. The acquired dataset is found to be well-suited for the validation of the numerical model and representsa reliable basis for updating.
