...Stig S. Knudsen; Jens H. Walther; Brian N. Legarth; Yanlin Shao NACRA 17 is a small foiling catamaran used in Olympic sailing. Sailing in the NACRA 17 is truly unsteady, especially in the foiling conditions. Dynamic velocity prediction has gained a lot of attention in recent years due...

...Neil Patterson; Jonathan Binns Since the introduction of hydrofoils to the Moth sailing class in the early 2000’s foiling has become increasingly popular in sailing from windsurfers to large 75’ foiling monohulls. The last 3 America’s Cups have been competed on hydro foiling vessels. Design...

...N. S. S. Prabahar; A. Persson; L. Larsson Horizontal T-foils allow for maximum lift generation within a given span. However, the lift force on a T-foil acts on the symmetry plane of the hull, thereby producing no righting moment. It results in a lack of transverse stability during foil-borne...

... in a multiphase environment. For this reason, “high fidelity” analysis solvers should be, in general, adopted also in the preliminary design phase. In the case of modern fast foiling sailing yachts, the appendages accomplish both the task of lifting up the boat and to make possible upwind sailing by contributing...

...Alec Bagué; Joris Degroote; Toon Demeester; Evert Lataire . This paper describes the study of the dynamic stability of a hydrofoiling sailing boat called the “Goodall Design Foiling Viper”. The goal of Goodall Design is to make hydrofoiling accessible to a wider public, whereas it was previously...

...Thilo Keller; Juryk Henrichs; Karsten Hochkirch; Andres Cura Hochbaum Hydrofoil supported sailing vessels gained more and more importance within the last years. Due to new processes of manufacturing, it is possible to build slender section foils with low drag coefficients and heave stable hydrofoil...
