The journal International Shipbuilding Progress (ISP) was founded in 1954. Each year two issues appear (in March and September). Publications submitted to ISP should describe scientific work of high international standards, advancing subjects related to the field of Marine Technology, such as:

  • - Concept development
    - General design of ships and offshore objects
    - Ship and offshore structural design
    - Hydro-mechanics and -dynamics
    - Maritime engineering and machinery systems
    - Production processes of all types of ships and other objects intended for marine use
    - Production technology and material science
    - Shipping science, economics, and all directly related subjects
    - Ship operations
    - Offshore and ocean engineering in relation to the marine environment
    - Marine safety
    - Efficiency, lifecycle, and  environment
    - Ice-related aspects for ships and offshore objects.

  • The contents of the papers may be of a fundamental or of an applied scientific nature and must be of the highest novelty and rigor.

Experimental studies on ship manoeuvrability in restricted waters

Authors: Fujino, Masataka

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper deals with the ship manoeuvrability in restricted waters, separating the problem into two parts, that is, shallow water effect and finite channel width effect. At first, the author introduce linearized equations of motion with asymmetric hydrodynamic force caused by the presence of walls. Each coefficient of the equations of motion was determined experimentally by means of forced yawing technique, while the asymmetric hydrodynamic force coefficients were determined by straigth tow test. In this part, it is examined in detail to what extent each coefficient is affected by finite water depth and finite channel width. Then, the change … Show more

The axial stiffness of marine diesel engine crankshafts

Authors: Visser, N.J.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The measurement of the axial stiffnesses of the cranks of four full scale crankshafts, supported by the engine main bearings, is described. The results are discussed and compared with those of the calculations using six published formulae. The relationship between the coefficients and the angles of adjacent cranks, or the “mean” crank angle, is investigated. The experimental results are verified with the theoretically determined shear force moments for axially loaded adjacent cranks The experimentally and theoretically determined stiffnesses are compared and finally proposals arc made for future work.
