Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure may be embodied as a blade for a wind turbine. The blade includes a spar and a blade body arranged around the spar. The blade may include a root, a tip, and one or more body sections, each body section having a length, a stiffness ratio. The blade may further include two or more boundary actuators, each boundary actuator positioned at a boundary end of a body section, wherein each boundary actuator is configured to engage the corresponding boundary end to twist the body section. The length and stiffness ratio of each section may be optimized for maximum efficiency during Region 2 operation.
