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.

The seakeeping laboratory of the Netherlands Ship Model Basin

Authors: van Lammeren, W.P.A. | Vossers, G.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A description is given of the design and the construction of a special seakeeping laboratory, in which ship models can be tested in regular and irregular waves of any given direction. By means of a wave generator which was developed recently, the possibilities of imitating actual conditions at sea have been increased as compared with the facilities in existing basins of the conventional type.

Crankcase explosions: An investigation into some factors governing the selection protective devices

Authors: Freeston, H.G. | Roberts, J.D. | Thomas, A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Remedies which have been suggested for crankcase explosions include the use of warning devices to detect overheating in the crankcase, and the provision of relief vents to limit the explosion pressure to a safe value. Data were obtained experimentally at the Thornton Research Centre for the conditions necessary for the ignition of mists of lubricating oil in air in order that the margin of safety offered by a detector of overheating might be more fully assessed. The venting of explosions was also studied both on a rig scale and in the crankcase of a Diesel engine of 1,100 … Show more
