Segeloptimeringswebinar den 15 februari

För er som var på seminariet med Max Salminen så diskuterade Max hur han metodiskt kom framåt med sin segling.
Hittade ett kul webinar som det går att registrera sig för. Mikko Brummer på WB-sails, som Max nämnde, går igenom hur han har gjort sitt utvecklingsarbete till bland annat de svenska olympierna Max Salminen och Fredrik Lööf i Finnjolle och Starbåt.  Dags att stämpla ut och kolla.

Join a free webinar describing some aspects of our sail development work through simulation, on Wednesday 15th of February. Although the webinar mostly showcases the amazing capabilities of modern simulation and optimization software, it does give some insights into sail aerodynamics.

Expert engineers from WB-Sails, Next Limit Dynamics and ESTECO are pleased to announce the joint webinar that will demonstrate the advantages of the integration of their software, illustrating the details of the models, and presenting the results of the optimization.

 

The focus of the webinar is to illustrate the optimization process used to enhance the shape of the sails used for Olympic disciplines and produced by the Finnish WB-Sails. The “flying shape” of the sail is modeled by a parametric CAD (Catia v5), and a non-stationary simulation, including sail, mast, boom and boat components, is performed using XFlow, the CFD software by Next Limit Dynamics, recently acquired by Dassault Systèmes. 


 The automatic simulation process was set up in modeFRONTIER using its workflow automation capabilities. With only few simulation the optimization algorithm was able to identify the optimal shape, while minimizing resistance and heeling moment on the boat.
