Numerical Simulation of Sailing Boats: Dynamics, FSI, and Shape Optimization

Alfio Quarteroni, Gianluigi Rozza, Nicola Parolini, Matteo Lombardi

The numerical simulation of free-surface flows around sailing boats is a complex topic that addresses multiple mathematical tasks: the correct study of the flow field around a rigid hull, the numerical simulation of the hull dynamics, the deformation of th ...
