Performance Prediction, Sail Developement, Performance Analysis
Part of the Juan Yacht Design Team during the final design and early sailing phases of the ClubSwan 125 Skorpios.
I joined the project during the late design stages, focusing on performance prediction using VPP tools. I also conducted CFD-FSI simulations on the canting keel trim tab, contributing to the refinement of the appendage.
Once launched, I worked on the calibration and analysis of sailing performance, correlating real-world data with simulation results.
Additionally, I collaborated with sail designers, supporting sail development with VPP-based performance insights.
Skorpios takes line honours – Rolex Fastnet Race 2021
Main tools: CFD (Star-CCM+) coupled with FEA (Abaqus), VPP, and Python for simulation and data analysis.
