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 note on the possible use of boundary layer control by surface heating to improve wake simulation in model testing

Authors: Arakeri, V.H.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The present note shows the possibility of improved model wake simulation by maintaining extended laminar flow with surface heating. The required heat transfer rates are based on flat plate calculations of boundary layer growth and stability characteristics computed by Wazzan et al.. Also results from recent tests conducted at the Netherlands Ship Model Basin (NSMB) which show the enhanced boundary layer stability with surface heating are briefly described.

A system’s theory approach in naval architecture

Authors: Birbanescu-Biran, A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The equation of unresisted rolling in still-water is used to obtain the transfer functions of this motion. Some of the best known results in naval architecture are derived from these expressions. Suspended weights and free liquid surfaces are regarded as cases of positive feedback whose influence is calculated by block diagram algebra.
