Introduction T HE main rotor is the major subsystem in a helicopter and has considerable in uence on helicopter performance, dynamics, and aeroelasticity. Therefore, considerableattention is given to accurate structural dynamic modeling of the helicopter rotor blade. Typically, the helicopter rotor blade is modeled as a rotating beam using an approximate method such as the nite element method. If the natural frequencies and mode shapes predicted by the nite element model differ from test data, the mass and stiffness properties of the nite element model can be changed using a model updating method.2 Model updating problems can be posed as optimization problems, where the difference between the available test and predicted system properties is minimized in a least-squares sense. Optimizationmethods such as genetic algorithms (GA) have only been used recently in model updating.3i5 In this study we use genetic algorithms for constructing a helicopter rotor blade from its frequencies.
