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.

Buckling analysis of rectangular ship plating

Authors: Mukhopadhyay, M.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The character of the ship structure and the loadings encountered in the design of ships poses a special problem of plate instability. A semianalytical method has been proposed in the paper to analyse the stability of ship plating and allied plated structures. The method is general and can be used to study the buckling of plates having any boundary and loading conditions, as well as for isotropic, orthotropic and variable thickness plates. It is simple and economic. Rectangular plates having different end conditions and loadings have been analysed. Excellent accuracy has been obtained.

Preliminary measurements of pressure distribution to determine the transverse stability of a fast round bilge hull

Authors: Millward, A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Recent evidence has shown that there can be significant changes in transverse static stability with forward speed for fast round bilge displacement hull forms leading to lateral instability in extreme cases. Preliminary measurements have been made of the pressure distribution at two stations on a typical round bilge hull form in both the stable and unstable regimes. The results correlated with the observed instability phenomenon and showed that in general the change in righting moment was largely related to changes in the buoyancy forces due to wave formation. The results also showed that on the two sections investigated the dynamic … Show more

Cepstral estimation of water-wave reflection-times using the auto-regressive power-spectral computational technique

Authors: Flower, J.O. | Forge, S.C.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The work described is part of a programme exploring the utility of digital signal-processing techniques for studying certain aspects of the behaviour of water-waves. When such studies are undertaken in a closed wave-tank reflections from the boundaries can be troublesome. To this end a cepstral analysis has been attempted on wave-height measurements to locate and assess these reflections. The auto-regressive power-spectral estimate has been used to obtain the cepstrum with some success and the results are compared with those obtained by more conventional data processing methods.
