The status and some recent developments in computational modeling of flexible multibody
systems are summarized. Discussion focuses on a number of aspects of flexible multibody …

An aeroelastically scaled model of a wind turbine is described, featuring active individual
blade pitch and torque control. The model, governed by supervision and control systems …

Die Anregung des Springer Vieweg Verlags, die fünfte Auflage unseres Buches Technische
Dynamik zu überarbeiten und zu aktualisieren, haben wir gerne aufgegriffen. Durch den …

A high fidelity approach for wind turbine aero-elastic simulations including explicit
representation of the atmospheric wind turbulence is presented. The approach uses a …

This paper addresses practical issues associated with the numerical enforcement of
constraints in flexible multibody systems, which are characterized by index-3 differential …

This paper presents a new approach to develop digital twins of helicopter dynamic systems.
Helicopter industries attach growing attention to the development of digital twins to be more …

Within the framework of the fourth phase of International Energy Agency IEA Wind Task 29, a

We describe procedures for the multi-disciplinary design optimization of wind turbines,
where design parameters are optimized by maximizing a merit function, subjected to …

This article presents a structural dynamic analysis of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs)
using a new methodology. The methodology is based on representing a HAWT as a multi …

As the need to model flexibility arose in multibody dynamics, the floating frame of reference
formulation was developed, but this approach can yield inaccurate results when elastic …
