Hi all.
I'd like to create a basic model of the forces acting on a sail (wind sail, like a tail ship)
A couple of things I was thinking about:
1) can create a very simple model where wind is 'one' force acting on the a uniform body.
2) model wind as vectors. This is where I am a little confused on how to start.
3) adding in multiple sails.
Any pointers?
I'm not looking for someone to actually do the modelling for me, just a place to start. Like maybe some Wikipedia articles, etc.
Thanks
Chris
