Abstract

Razvoj tehnologije u jedrenju imao je veliki utjecaj na razinu rezultata u natjecateljskom jedrenju. Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je predstaviti kako je razvoj tehnologije jedrenja u sportskom jedriličarskom natjecanju America's Cup utjecao na razvoj tehnologije jedrilica i jedrenja izvan tog natjecanja. U pozadini navedene regate gotovo su uvijek jedne od najvećih svjetskih korporacija. Stoga ne čudi da je America's Cup postao laboratorij za razvoj jedriličarskog sporta s kojeg su se redovito... More nova saznanja prenosila i na druge jedriličarske klase. Od 1980-ih do danas, evolucija tehnologije gradnje, korištenih materijala i dizajna trupa bila je ništa drugo do ekstremna. Pojavljuju se sve brži i snažniji trupovi, sve do pojave krila 2012. godine koja omogućuju brodovima "let" po vodi. Razvoj novih materijala omogućio je da se tehnologija krila primjenjuje i u razvoju brodova olimpijskih klasa. Poboljšanjem tehnoloških rješenja povećana je i sigurnost jedriličara te medijske praćenosti natjecanja što je izravno dovelo do veće popularnosti i praćenosti sportskog jedrenja. Kroz dva stoljeća, otkako natjecanje postoji, vjerojatno je postojalo puno inovativnih ideja za poboljšanje brodova. Međutim, društvo i tehnologije nisu tada bili još dovoljno razvijeni i te su ideje stavljene na čekanje. Trebalo je strpljivo čekati da se znanost i resursi spoje u kvalitetan projekt koji se može primijeniti na brodove, kako na brodove u America's Cupu tako i na ostale sportske jedrilice. Tehnologija napreduje svakim danom sve više te će biti veoma zanimljivo pratiti kako će to utjecati na daljnji razvoj jedrenja i brodova, čak već i u bližoj budućnosti. Less

Abstract (english)

The development of technology in sailing had a great impact on the level of results in competitive sailing. The aim of this thesis is to present how the development of sailing technology in the America's Cup sailing competition influenced the development of sailing technology and sailing outside of that competition. Behind the mentioned regatta are almost always one of the world's largest corporations. Therefore, it is not surprising that the America's Cup became a laboratory for the... More development of sports sailing, from which new knowledge was regularly transferred to other sailing classes. From the 1980s to today, the evolution of construction technology, materials used and hull design has been nothing short of extreme. Faster and more powerful hulls appear, until the appearance of wings that allow ships to "fly" on water. The development of new materials has enabled foil technology to be applied in the development of Olympic-class ships. The improvement of technological solutions increased the safety of sailors and the media coverage of the competition, which directly led to greater popularity and coverage of sports sailing. In the two centuries since the competition has existed, there have probably been a lot of innovative ideas to improve the boats. However, society and technologies were not yet sufficiently developed and these ideas were put on hold. It was a matter of waiting patiently for the science and resources to come together in a quality project that could be applied to boats, both America's Cup ones and other sports yachts. Technology is advancing more and more every day, and it will be really interesting to follow how it will affect the further development of sailing and ships, already in the near future. Less
