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.

Introduction and general survey

Authors: van Manen, J.D.

Simulation of steering and manoeuvring qualities of ships

Authors: van den Brug, J.B.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Simulation of ship manoeuvring qualities by means of free-running models and a manoeuvring simulator is discussed briefly. It is shown how the use of a manoeuvring simulator has advantages when the human operator is an important part of the system and when automatic control systems and navigating instruments have to be developed and adjusted. The use of a simulator in ship design handling is shown. A description is given of the new N.S.M.B. manoeuvring simulator.

Human aspects of ship manoeuvring and simulation

Authors: Wagenaar, W.A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The manoeuvrability of a ship is determined by the physical properties of the ship in its environment and the physiological and psychological properties of its navigator. Hence, the study of manoeuvrability should emphasize the interactional aspect of the subject matter. Topics like human perception and information processing, adaptation, and training are discussed briefly. It is proposed that research and adequate training in this field are only possible if the situation for the man on the bridge is simulated as realistically as possible. The N.S.M.B. manoeuvring simulator is an attempt to fulfil this requirement.

Nautical aspects of ship handling in simulation

Authors: Don, C.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: When ship handling is simulated on a manoeuvring simulator either for training or for research projects, where the human being, handling the ship, is involved, a careful analysis has to be made of the nautical aspects of handling a ship in a simulator. Discussions between designers,users and people with practical knowledge of situations and manoeuvres to be simulated, are essential to ascertain an optimum use of the simulator facilities.
