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.

Ship research activities in the Netherlands

Authors: Oosterveld, M.W.C. | van Oossanen, P.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an extensive research program carried out at the Netherlands Ship Model Basin during the period from 1969 to 1972. This program concluded the investigations carried out in the period from 1963 to 1969 concerning various high-speed propulsion problems. Results are given of investigations into friction reduction and cavitation suppression by polymer injection. A computer program for the unsteady lifting surface theory for ship screws was extended and some results obtained are given. Some results of a study on low-noise propellers are presented. Measurements of blade stresses of propellers in a homogeneous flow are given … Show more

Optimization of nozzle-propeller-rudder configurations for high powered large ships

Authors: Gibson, I.S. | van Gunsteren, L.A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: In this paper the design process of ducted propeller configurations for high powered large ships is discussed, particular emphasis is placed upon the selection of concept, i.e. the general layout of propeller, nozzle, rudder(s) and struts and their location with respect to the ship’s afterbody. A new concept, characterized by two rudders of high aspect ratio placed behind a relatively short nozzle is investigated for a 425 000 t.d.w. restricted draft tanker, and the optimization of the basic design parameters by means of systematic computer calculations is discussed for this case. Based on this concept, a twin rudder-short nozzle was … Show more
