Time to introduce the brand-new original demo based on 3DEXPERIENCE Platform that has been created by interns team from CATIA Design Brand in Shanghai. And the topic of the project is a crossover yacht concept named “Lusso Future”. It was pushed both on cloud and on premise during the summer vacation, and the staged achievement was promoted as a premiere few weeks ago.
any readers show interest in the twin wings on the front of the yacht. The concept yacht looks like a spacecraft in some ways, due to the flamboyant appearance. Sometime flamboyant production is regarded by most men as a gewgaw. Well, Shall the wings character just be a gingerbread and functionless?
The Lusso Future Crossover Concept was inspired by sea mammal whale. The creative designer shaped her with dynamic bionic design language. And it’s obviously that the styling inspiration of wings is the large fins.
And actually, the wings’ academic name is hydrodynamic force wings.
Splash is a common phenomenon in the traditional high speed vessel as following picture shows, which would put drag and reduce fuel economy during the driving route.
Bingo!This is the most special part of the hydrodynamic force wing. And from the result of CFD, it could reduce the splash phenomenon distinctly and make great sense for high speed performance.
So, the flamboyant appearance character also could be functional. Seamless collaboration between designers and engineers is vital in a production design process. Thanks for the 3D EXPERIENCE Platform that dealing with the balance between form and function could be more easily!
