Les contraintes sont réduites de façon importante en marche normale lorsqu'on dispose les pales de façon que leurs axes fassent avec l'axe de l'éolienne, un angle inférieur à 90 degrés. La surface décrite par les pales est conique. Le moment des forces aérodynamiques s'oppose alors au moment des forces centrifuges. le moment de flexion résultant peut être nul, si bien que les pales peuvent être soumises à un effort de traction pur. 3, record 2, French, - moment%20de%20flexion
