In the past years, the consumption of energy produced by wind turbines had an exponential growth. This requirement gave momentum to the development of larger turbines with the goal of producing more energy at the same si...

In this paper, we present the development of a rigid-flexible multibody model which, coupled with an existing aerodynamic model, is used to numerically simulate the non-linear aeroelastic behavior of large horizontal-axi...
