Wind Energy

Call for Papers

Clean energies are becoming the major energy resources of the future. Wind power does not generate pollution and is a clean source. Recent engineering advances in wind energy production have contributed to the successful solution of real problems thus improving the quality of life. This special issue aims at gathering research works focusing on the development of mathematical model for the recent developments of wind energy. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Dynamics and control of wind turbines
• Wind turbine gearbox
• Power electronics
• Generators
• Power transmission and distribution
• Wind rotor technology
• Wind farm planning
• Wind loads and structural response
• Optimization of energy systems

Before submission authors should carefully read over the journal's Author Guidelines, which are located at http://www.hindawi.com/journals/mpe/guidelines/. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal Manuscript Tracking System at http://mts.hindawi.com/submit/journals/mpe/wen/ according to the following timetable:
