Science Fair Project Idea You can use the blades along with other sizes to test the amount of output of electricity using the variable of size for the blades.
They can be used with all the horizontal Wind Turbines as a add on.

Factoid: "The wind can be very harsh on blades — turbines turn off if the wind gets too much, or else the blades will break fighting the wind," explained researcher Paul Weaver, an aerospace engineer at the University of Bristol.
"A morphing blade uses the wind to its advantage rather than fighting it, adapting its shape to get greater performance," Weaver added. "This has the potential to significantly relieve unwanted stresses in the blades, increasing their efficiency and helping to prolong their life."
