Remarks

Within spar cells a special area of the spar is defined where different cross section and material properties shall be defined.

The area of the spar is defined by using the parameters 'fromEta' and 'toEta'. The definition of the caps, webs and rotation is equivalent to the cross section definition of the complete spar.
