Abstract: The interaction between ship sails and the air flow field is a typical fluid-structure interaction problem, which has attracted great attention in recent years. Research on the mechanical behavior of the fluid-structure interaction for ship sails is of great significance to the structural optimization design of the sails and the improvement of the ship dynamic performance. In order to fully understand the state-of-the-art of the fluid-structure interaction of ship sails, the current relevant literatures have been reviewed from the aspects of numerical simulation and experimental research. The adopted numerical methods are summarized from three aspects of air flow field, sail structure, and fluid-structure interaction. The current experimental methods are classified and analyzed from the viewpoints of the full-scale and model-scale tests. The future research direction of the fluid-structure interaction of ship sails is analyzed and discussed by comparing the advantages and disadvantages of different methods.
