1. Methods for the Evaluation of Wingsails with a Crescent-Shaped Profile
Abstract : Seaborne transportation accounts for a large proportion of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has stipulated that GHG emissions should be reduced by 50% before 2050 compared to 2018. The use of wind-assisted ship propulsion (WASP) is considered one of the most effective ways to reduce GHG emissions. READ MORE

2. Rapid Aerodynamic Method for Interacting Sails
Abstract : Rapid performance prediction tools are required for the evaluation, optimization, and comparison of different wind propulsion systems (WPSs). These tools should capture viscous aerodynamic flow effects in 3D, especially the maximum propulsion force, stall angles and interaction effects between the lift-generating units. READ MORE

3. Simulation model of a ship’s energy performance and transportation costs
Abstract : Society faces a major challenge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to limit the effects and propagation of climate change. As the main contributor to global trade, the shipping industry adds significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions and must actively work towards reducing, or eliminating, emissions in a short period.
