Structural validation of custom blade design

Dear @Abdi.SheikHassanm,

I guess whether your equations make sense depends on how you are defining AeroCent and PitchAxis. If you are using the variables from the following forum post: NREL 5MW Rotor Geometry - #3 by Jason.Jonkman, I would say the equations should be:

BlCrvAC = (AeroRef - PitchAxis) * Chord * SIN(AeroTwst)
BlSwpAC = (AeroRef - PitchAxis) * Chord * COS(AeroTwst)

, where AeroRef has replaced AeroCent.

Best regards,
