        abstract = {The present study focuses on the modelling and static structural analysis of a horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) rotor blade. The blade geometry is designed using the NACA 63415 airfoil profile and modelled in SolidWorks. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is conducted in ANSYS 19.2 to evaluate the blade’s structural performance under static loading conditions. The rotor blade is analyzed using hybrid polymer composite materials, including Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP), Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP), Graphene fillers, Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The structural analysis focuses on key parameters such as Total deformation, Equivalent stress, and Equivalent elastic strain. Results indicate that all composite configurations demonstrate acceptable levels of stress and strain, with deformations remaining within the material safety limits. This study provides valuable insights into the structural behavior of wind turbine blades fabricated with advanced composite materials and supports the development of more efficient and durable renewable energy systems.},
