Abstract
The paper presents full-scale blade tests under a combined flap- and edgewise loading. The main
aim of this paper is to present the results from testing a wind turbine blade under such conditions
and to study the structural behavior of the blade subjected to combined loading. A loading
method using anchor plates was applied, allowing transverse shear distortion. The global and
local deformation of the blade as well as the reproducibility of the test was studied and the
results from the investigations are presented.
