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.

An optimum screw propeller with endplates

Authors: Sparenberg, J.A. | de Vries, J.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: In this paper is discussed the design of an optimum screw propeller model with endplates at the tips of the blades, based on a linear optimization theory. Results of experiments are given.

On active control of marine vehicles with pneumatic compliances

Authors: Patel, M.H. | Witz, J.A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the use of pneumatic compliances to control the heave motions of semi-submersible marine vehicles when disturbed by ocean waves. The pneumatic compliances are in the form of open bottom ah tanks which are attached to the vessel at the water line and extend above and below the still water level. Each tank traps a volume of air above its internal water level. Active operation of these tanks involves controlling the amount of air trapped within the tanks, so as to exert varying forces on the vessel which can counteract wave induced disturbing forces.
