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.

Computer-aided simulations of large amplitude roll motions of ships in waves and of dynamic stability

Authors: Papanikolaou, A. | Zaraphonitis, G.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The paper deals with analytical-numerical and computer-aided methods to simulate large amplitude roll motions and to evaluate the dynamic stability of ships in waves. A simplified but fundamental equation of roll motion is set up accounting for the characteristic nonlinearities in the damping and restoring term, the latter including the coupling with heave motion, a constant bias and regular wave excitation. The methods employed for studying the roll response and the stability of the formulated nonlinear differential equation are a second-order perturbation expansion, a Runge-Kutta numerical procedure and alternatively an analog-digital computer code, namely CSMP (Continuous System Modelling … Show more

A hybrid method of estimating hydrodynamically-generated forces for use in ship-manoeuvring simulation

Authors: Pourzanjani, M.M.A. | Zienkiewicz, H.K. | Flower, J.O.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: There exists a requirement for simple realistic mathematical models for use in ship-manoeuvring simulation studies. McCallum [5] introduced the Force Mathematical Model which suggested a novel way to approach the problem. This communication is concerned with estimating hydrodynamically-generated forces experienced by the hull in a translational motion for use in the modelling process by a physically appealing method. The technique utilizes slender-body theory supplemented by experiments undertaken in a fairly basic wind-tunnel. The procedure, although by no means an exact one, has the advantage of being quite general in application, supplying parameters for mathematical models which can be used effectively … Show more
