Course Description

Introduction. Stability of sailing yachts, hydrodynamics of hull and appendages, hull form design, aerodynamics of sails, rigging design, performance prediction, testing methods, computational methods, general arrangement.

 

Course Objectives

 

1.  To provide students with knowledge and skills required for designing sailing craft to be used for pleasure or sports purposes.

2.  To prepare students towards engineering problems associated with high performance marine craft.

 

Course Learning Outcomes

 

Students who successfully complete the course will acquire the fundamental knowledge listed below as a basis for further studies in sailing yacht design and they will be capable of  using such knowledge to obtain solutions to basic problems of yacht design.

  1.      Design of sailing yacht hull and appendages.
  2.      Design of sails and rigging.
  3.      Performance prediction of sailing yachts.
  4.      Balance of different aspects of design in a complex system.
