Zusammenfassung:TORSIONALLY COMPLIANT HELICOPTER ROTOR BLADE WITH IMPROVED STABILITY AND PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS A torsionally compliant helicopter rotor blade with maximum blade torsional flexibility at the blade tip portion and so shaped at the blade root portion that the locus of shear centers and the locus of centers of lift are substantially coincident, and so shaped at the tip portion so that the locus of shear centers is selectively forward of the locus of centers of lift to establish an aerodynamic restoring moment in response to blade tip torsional excursions, thereby improving blade torsional stability.
