A new innovative approach to sailing has been proposed by TU Delft. It allows sailing in any desired direction, including straight into the wind. The concept consists of generating energy with a sky sail and then using it in an electric motor of the ship. The paper describes a mathematical model of laddermill sail.

Laddermill flight control problem with closed loop is considered in this paper. Laddermill is an alternative concept for energy production using high altitude kites. The kites have been simulated as rigid bodies and the cable as a thin elastic line. Euler angles and cable speed are controls. Flight control is written as a fusion of two...

Laddermill sail is an innovative approach to propel the ship with the power generated by kites. The first Laddermill system is currently being designed however existing mathematical models of the system produce different optimal recommendations. Thus a decision has been made to step back and to take a closer look at the mathematical models of...

Closed loop Laddermill flight control problem is considered in this paper. Laddermill is a high altitude kites system for energy production. The kites have been simulated as rigid bodies and the cable as a thin elastic line. Euler angles and cable speed are controls. Flight control is written as a fusion of two approaches: design of experiments...

One of novel concepts to use the energy of high altitude winds is by launching a series of kite on a long rope and let them pull the rope thus driving the generator. A mathematical model of tethered kites system has been developed consisting of models of kites and of the cable that links them together and to the generator on the ground energy...
