| Popis: |
The recent America's Cup has demonstrated the extreme performance capability of the AC45 and AC72 catamarans. The high cost and risk of catastrophic failure has imposed restrictions on the availability of these boats for training. As a consequence the use of simulators to allow shore-based training becomes an attractive option. The aim of this study is to use a recently developed AC45 tacking simulator to investigate the optimum tack sequence by conducting a parametric study of user control inputs based on previously recorded time histories. The study will provide a better understanding of the influence of the input parameters on the tack and allow improved shore-based training programmes to be developed. |
