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.

Prediction of speed and behaviour of a ship in a sea-way

Authors: Journée, J.M.J.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A computer program has been developed to calculate speed and behaviour of a ship in a sea-way. In this stage the program is suitable for seagoing vessels in head waves. In determining the speed, two factors are considered: the natural speed reduction due to added resistance caused by wind and waves and the voluntary speed reduction by the ship’s captain, in order to prevent severe motions.

Some experiments on cavitation inception with propellers in the NSMB-depressurized towing tank

Authors: Noordzij, L.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The effect of the number of free stream nuclei on marine propeller cavitation, type and extent, is investigated. It is found that an increase of free stream nuclei stimulates cavitation inception and stabilizes the cavitation pattern. In this paper some preliminary results are presented.

A lifting surface approach to planing boat design

Authors: Clement, E.P.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The utilization of a design approach for a planing boat similar to that followed in the design of a hydrofoil boat or an airplane leads to a new, more efficient type of planing boat configuration. The lift-drag ratio of the new configuration is approximately 50 percent greater than that of the conventional stepless planing boat.

On-line computer determination of the unsteady lift characteristics of hydrofoils by a multi-frequency technique

Authors: Flower, J.O. | Forge, S.C. | Knott, G.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper discusses an on-line computer experiment aimed at determining the unsteady lift characteristics of hydrofoil sections using multi-frequency disturbances and numerical processing based on fast Fourier transform techniques. The results achieved are compared with those obtained using a conventional Transfer Function Analyser. The advantages of the former approach are the vastly reduced time required to perform the experiments and the very small input disturbances necessary to excite the system under test.
