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.

On nonlinear rolling of ships in random seas

Authors: Haddara, M.R.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: An analytical method has been developed to obtain an approximate solution to the nonlinear rolling equation of a ship sailing in random waves. The stability of the stationary solution is then investigated by examining the behavior of the solution to the equation of the first variation of the equation of motion. Results of calculations made for a model of an American Challenger class cargo ship indicate large departures from the linear solution, especially near resonance. These results also indicate that the model may have unstable motion in quartering seas. Although this instability can be eliminated by considering a nonlinear … Show more

Prediction of drifting force and moment on an ocean platform floating in oblique waves

Authors: Kim, C.R. | Chou, F.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper presents a new procedure for predicting the lateral drifting force and moment on an ocean platform floating in oblique waves. The disturbance of an incident wave caused by the presence of the floating body is represented by the sum of the diffracted and forced wave potentials, which are determined by satisfying the kinematical boundary conditions on the body surface. The scattered waves are determined from the asymptotic expression of the two potentials. Frank’s closed-fit method, Grim’s strip method and Maruo’s formula for two-dimensional drifting force are used. Numerical results were compared with experimental results and found to be … Show more
