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.

Gas concentration in the cargo tanks of crude oil carriers

Authors: Logan, A. | Drinkwater, J.W.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The paper starts with a brief review of the incidence of major explosions in the cargo tanks of large crude oil tankers, and in particular those associated with tank cleaning. A description is given of the portable equipment which was developed to measure and record continuously the changing concentrations at different points inside a cargo tank. The general pattern of mixture strength during a round voyage from the U.K. to the Middle East is explained. From this it appears that the most potentially hazardous part of the voyage is during the tank cleaning operation and the changes which occur … Show more

An analysis of recent screwshaft casualties

Authors: Pemberton, H.N. | Smedley, G.P.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The results of our analysis of casualties to screwshafts in ships classed with Lloyd’s Register and recorded between January, 1952 and December 1957, are presented in various groups. The groups cover screwshafts fitted with continuous liners and those operating in oil-lubricated bearings and having approved types of oil glands; shafts of single- and multi-screw ships; type, position and numeral of the machinery driving the particular shafts; shafts of new single-screw ships; shafts of American wartime-built standard merchant ships. A casualty is defined as any reason for the replacement of a screwshaft, the casualties being divided into groups which depend … Show more
