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.

Criterion for neglecting of free oscillations of a ship in a seaway

Authors: Radosavljević, Lj.B.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: General solutions of differential equations of a ship motion, as they are linear nonhomogeneous with constant coefficients, are the sums of general solutions of homogeneous and of particular solutions of nonhomogeneous parts of equations (i.e. the sums of free and forced oscillations). Because of a damping which exists in the system, the general solutions of homogeneous parts of equations have an amortizing character. Therefore, it is usual in engineering practice to neglect the free oscillations and to suppose that the complete motion is reduced only to the forced oscillations. The author attempts to find out a criterion for neglecting … Show more

Model study of floating drydock mooring forces

Authors: Wiegel, R.L. | Clough, R.W. | Dilley, R.A. | Williams, J.E.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Presented herein is a discussion of the problem of wave-induced forces on ships’ moorings, together with the details of a laboratory study of an AFDL-1 (floating drydock). The resulting mooring line forces are given. In addition, the correlations between prototype and model natural periods of surge and sway are given.

Optical marking and automatic plate production

Authors: Mellanby, W.R.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper describes a new method introduced into shipbuilding for fabricating steel plates. The work in the mould loft, dealing with the training of men, drawing templates to a 1:10 scale, and the system of photographing these drawings is explained. The use of the resultant photographic negative in the automatic flame cutting machine and optical marking projectors is dealt with and the apparatus used is described. The method controlling this new system, with a background of production engineering methods, the capital costs and the economics of the work, including factual production speeds, are given and fully described. Experiments made … Show more
