    Special Issue on Wind Turbine Modeling and SimulationThe exploitation of both on-shore and off-shore wind resources and the need to reduce the cost of energyproduced by wind, is spurring a tremendous effort towards technological innovations that will enable thedesign of the next generation wind turbines. Future machines are expected to be in the 10-20MW range,employing large rotors with highly flexible slender blades, and featuring sophisticated aerodynamics and a

    variety of solutions for the active and passive alleviation of loads. These machines will be subjected tocomplex excitations that include turbulent and gusty winds, wakes developed by other machines within a

    wind farm, and large rigid body motions due to flotation, waves and currents.These formidable technical challenges are being met with multi-physics simulation models of ever increasing

    sophistication. This special issue aims at providing an update on the state-of-the-art on multibody dynamicsapplied to the modeling and simulation of wind turbines. Original research and review articles are solicited inall aspects dealing with models, methods and tools for the analysis and design of wind energy systems. All

    submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and selected on the basis of originality, quality and their relevance tothe theme of this special issue.
