An articulating wingsail design for Wind Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP) applications
A novel articulating wingsail design for WASP is developed and an 8.25 m2 prototype has been constructed. This wingsail has potential as a supplementary source of propulsion for cargo shipping. By using wind power, the greenhouse gas emissions from shipping can be significantly reduced. To further d...
