 # Summary
 
-Marine propeller blade shape is constantly studied by engineers to obtain designs that allow for enhanced hydrodynamic performance while reducing vibrations and noise emissions. In such framework, shape parametrization and morphing algorithms are crucial elements of the numerical simulation and prototyping environment required for the evaluation of new blade geometries. From a practical standpoint, a propeller blade is uniquely described by the following parameters: the shape of a certain number of sectional profiles, complemented by the pitch, skew, rake, and chord length values corresponding to each section along the radial direction. Taking such parameters into account we are able to construct a blade and, parametrizing the aforementioned quantities by spline reconstruction, we are able to morph every single section. This results in a morphing tool that expands in a non-intrusive way the naval engineering consolidated design techniques. In particular, we followed [@carlton2012marine] for marine propeller blades construction, conventions, and terminology.

 In the BladeX Python package, we implemented the bottom-up construction of blades given the radial distribution of pitch, skew, rake, chord, and camber of the sectional profiles. We also provide several tutorials showing how to construct or import sectional profiles in 2D and then how to generate the desired 3D representation of the blade. It is also possible to export the final design in CAD files such as iges and stl. Even if the focus is on marine propeller blades, the software is general enough to produce, for instance, aircraft wings or wind turbine blades. It is particularly suited for simulation-driven design shape optimization.
