A benchmark on structural design methods for blades was performed within the
InnWind.Eu project under WP2 “Lightweight Rotor” Task 2.2 “Lightweight structural
design”. The present document is describes the results of the comparison simulation
runs that were performed by the partners involved within Task 2.2 of the InnWind.Eu
project. The benchmark is based on the reference wind turbine and the reference blade
provided by DTU [1]. "Structural Concept developers/modelers" of WP2 were provided
with the necessary input for a comparison numerical simulation run, upon definition of
the reference blade [2]. Output is compared in here in terms of weight, stiffness, natural
frequencies, deflection (extreme load) and strength & stability (extreme load).
