An investigation into the application of LES and DES for prediction of flow and forces around an IACC yacht keel and marine bodies

Mylonas, DimitriosUniversity of Strathclyde2013

… at angles of incidence and an assymetric America's Cup yacht keel. Quantitative comparisons included predictions of values of global force coefficients around the geometrics, pressure and friction coefficients on the surface, and wake analysis. Qualitative observation focused on flow …

Geometry mediated drag reduction using riblets and wrinkled surface textures

Raayai Ardakani, ShabnamMassachusetts Institute of Technology2018

… been banned in various competitions such as the America's Cup. The current thesis work is partly focused on theoretical and numerical modelling (using the open source CFD package OpenFOAM) of the evolution of viscous boundary layers in the presence of various-shaped riblets (V-grooves as well as …
