We review the current status of physical modeling

of X-ray spectral signatures of disc winds in X-ray binaries.

I discuss the main physical processes that could launch and accelerate

winds and the processes that control the wind geometry and time-variability.

Finally, I review insights from time-dependent multi-dimensional numerical

simulations of the winds and show a few examples of how these

winds can account for the observed properties of X-ray binaries.
