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 convenient method for estimating wave resistance, and its variation with small changes of hull shape, for a wide range of ship types

Authors: Gadd, G.E.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A method of calculating ship wave resistance is discussed. It is applicable to a wide variety of hull forms, and uses as computer input a simple table of hull geometry. It ranks groups of similar hull forms quite well in order of merit of resistance, and can also predict far-field waves.

Parametric excitation and the stability of a ship subjected to a steady heeling moment

Authors: Féat, G. | Jones, D.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The stability of a ship, rolling in regular beam waves at zero speed while under the influence of an additional constant heeling moment, is considered. Effects which produce parametric excitations are investigated theoretically; their inclusion in a study of the roll equation implies that the degree of instability depends on the direction of the additional moment relative to the wave source. This conclusion is tested using the data of model experiments in which this behaviour was clearly observed.

Proposed reduction of thickness factor with relation to fatigue

Authors: El-Gammal, M.M.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: With the increased employment of high tensile steel in shipstructures, the problem of low cycle fatigue should not be overlooked. In recent years there has been greater concern to improve the fatigue performance of containerships, ore-carrier ships and other ship types which have large hatches. This is mainly as a result of the large number of cracks found in areas located at the bottom and deck, especially in way of openings and in areas in which high tensile steel is extensively used. This paper presents a new method of design to ensure fatigue performance of structures made of high … Show more
