Abstract

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part P: Journal of Sports Engineering and Technology, Volume 240, Issue 1, Page 184-191, March 2026.
Hydrodynamic performance of windsurfing boards is greatly affected by geometrical details of their bottom surfaces. In this study, computational fluid dynamics is applied to simulate flow around boards with several bottom modifications, including deadrise,...
