Prediction of velocity and attitude of a yacht sailing upwind by computational fluid dynamics
International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2016 One of the most important factors in sailing yacht design is accurate velocity prediction. Velocity prediction programs (VPP's) are widely used to predict velocity of sailing yachts. VPP's, which are primarily based on experimental data and experience of

Improving the Downwind Sail Design Process by Means of a Novel FSI Approach
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The process of designing a sail can be a challenging task because of the difficulties in predicting the real aerodynamic performance. This is especially true in the case of downwind sails, where the evaluation of the real shapes and aerodynamic forces ...

Use of the AHP Method for Preference Determination in Yacht Design
Polish Maritime Research, 2023 A sailing yacht is a human-centred product, the design of which revolves primarily around the wants and desires of the future owner. In most cases, these preferences are not measurable, such as a personal aesthetic feeling, or a need for comfort, speed ...
