I'd like to model the dynamic forces on a blade. Statically the moment of inertia is simple. But dynamically (rotating) there appears to be so many different forces on the blade how would a single point of action (where all forces could be equivalently resolved through) be calculated...

Does anyone know how to calculate the bearing load on a wind turbine? The gyro loads are the ones I have difficulty calculating. If there is a gyro or wind turbine design reference (book and/or web) that you could recommend? Thanks.

What is "skeletal modelling"? I have Inventor 6.0 with SP1 and cannot find any reference to "skeletal modelling". Is it in V6 or a later release? What should I search/ look for?

I'm starting to work with ANSYS 7.0 and have a million questions. ENG-TIPS is great but I don't want to swamp them with threads. Is there any other site (even a chat site) where ANSYS users can converse with each other? Thanks!
