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.

A model navigator based on laser

Authors: Loesberg, P.P.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The article gives a description of a measuring device to determine the position of a ship model in a basin. The position is determined by two light-beams, projected from a laser, the beams being automatically orientated to the model. The direction of the light -beams is controlled by servo-motor driven mirrors, a circular row of triple mirrors installed in the model reflects the light-beams to fotocells. The output voltages of these cells control the servo-systems. The position of the model is obtained in the form of two angles, these angles are transformed, by means of resolvers and electronic analogue dividers, … Show more

Preliminary fleet design by geometric programming

Authors: Folkers, J.S.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Geometric programming is a mathematical method for restricted optimization of a certain kind of polynomial functions. The purpose of this paper is to apply this method to a problem of preliminary fleet operations analysis. Three versions of this problem are fully discussed with a view to present a working knowledge for the general application of this method to other problems of ship design and operation. The paper is subdivided in two parts, which are both self-consistent. Part I deals with the construction of a transportation model with a number of variants. Results are given without discussion of the method used … Show more
