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.

Model tests for determining critical vibrations of the rudderpost of a “Mariner” rudder

Authors: Wereldsma, R.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Model tests have been executed to determine the bending and torsional vibration phenomena in the rudderpost of a “Mariner” rudder. Discussion of the laws of mechanical similarity which must be satisfied in these model tests. It appears from the measurements of the tension amplitudes that the excitation of the rudder by the helicoidal tip vortices of the propeller is not exactly harmonic but that it also contains a “noise” element. The added mass of the rudder could be established from the measurements.

The manufacture of marine oil engines

Authors: Smith, J.E.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: In this paper the author has not attempted to describe all the processes in the manufacture of a diesel engine: the scope is too wide. It has been necessary to confine the observations to general lines and to emphasize only those principles which appear to open up possibilities of progress and improvement in technique. A good deal of attention is paid to the mechanization of fabrication and the combining of heavy machine tools for their special application to the problem of machining the large components for direct-drive diesel engines. In view of the prime importance of machining processes … Show more
