SA Evolution

Previously an area of sail design notorious for "hit and miss", the design of fiber layout sails certainly deserves a serious scientific approach. But until now, the tools with which to optimize the layout and fiber content were simply not available to the independent sail designer.

Now, by virtually simulating the aero-elastic behavior of sails in up-wind sailing conditions, comparing alternative fibers and layouts, and analyzing the resulting sail shapes, the optimal fiber layout distribution can be achieved.

This is crucial to arrive to an optimal fiber layout.

Main Benefits

  • Fully integrated design, fiber layout and meshing resolve any type of flaw occurring in the migration of data from one design system to another.
  • The comparison between principal stress directions and intensities calculated with alternative fiber types and layout allows the selection of the optimal fiber layout.
