Prediction and measurement of the roll motion of a sailing yacht at zero forward speed

The roll motion of a yacht at zero Froude number is investigated, motivated by limitations of existing theoretical models of roll motion when applied to bodies with large appendages. A time domain single degree of freedom roll model has been developed in order to identify the dominant excitation and...
