Dynamic Fluid Structure Interaction of NACRA 17 Foil

The NACRA 17 is a small foiling catamaran that is lifted out of the water by two asymmetric z-foils and two rudder elevators. This paper investigates how foil deflection affects not only foil performance but overall boat behaviour using a numerical Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) model. The deform...
