Lecture
Sailboat Dynamics: Key Parameters and Drag Forces
Description
This lecture covers the key parameters governing sailboat dynamics, focusing on internally dominated flow and dimensional analysis. It discusses the identity of key parameters, such as sail, hull, and keel, and explores drag forces, boundary layers, and vortex formation. The instructor explains how sail redirection and keel balance contribute to lift generation and hull speed.
