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.

Cavitation erosion prediction using a “soft surface”

Authors: Kadoi, Hiroyuki | Sasajima, Takao

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Soft surface technique to predict cavitation erosion of ship propellers through model tests in cavitation tunnel was studied. Among several materials for the soft surface, the stencil ink was chosen in view of the proposal of the Cavitation Committee of ITTC and applied to geosim model propellers of a container ship through the comparative cavitation tests in two cavitation tunnels. As a result, the stencil ink was found to work pretty well, if the standard procedure to prepare the soft surface is established. Further study is necessary, however, if the stencil ink is used as the standard soft … Show more

On the influence of three-dimensional effects and restricted water depth on ship hull vibration

Authors: Madsen, Niels Fl.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: In this note a finite element method for the calculation of the three-dimensional added mass of a vibrating ship hull is presented. The hull is approximated by a cylinder of the same overall dimensions as the ship and the mode of vibration is approximated by the vibration mode of a uniform free-free Bernoulli-Euler beam. The method has been compared with an analytical solution and with measured results. Finally, a parametric study of the effect of restricted water on the three-dimensional added mass is presented.

The variation of lateral stability of a sailing yacht with forward motion

Authors: Millward, A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: An experiment was carried out to measure the lateral stability and vertical position of the Centre of Lateral Resistance of a one sixth scale model of the hull of a Dragon yacht when moving at a steady speed through the water. The results obtained showed that the stability with forward motion was up to 7.6% greater than the static stability for the test conditions. It was also found that the actual Centre of Lateral Resistance was 2 1/2% of the draught nearer to the waterline than the design estimate in the upright condition but 6% lower for heel angles … Show more
