Statics Analysis on Sail Structure for Ocean-Going Ships

Article Preview

Abstract:

It is becoming a trend to achieve the purpose of energy conservation and emissions reduction that application of sailing navigation technology in large ocean-going ships. Two kinds of three-dimensional models of sail are presented in this paper, and they are made to do a structural calculation under the action of gravity with the ANSYS simulation software. Then the deflection of the sail under the action of gravity load and the distribution of its stress is concluded. A more reasonable design of sail structure can be selected.
