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.

Static 2-D solution of a mooring line of arbitrary composition in the vertical and horizontal operating modes

Authors: Oppenheim, B.W. | Wilson, P.A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A theoretical static solution is reported for a two-dimensional mooring line having an arbitrary multi-segment composition of wires, chains and synthetic ropes, and buoys. The segments can be buoyant, neutrally buoyant or heavier than water, and they can be nonlinearly stretchable. The buoys can be of constant positive and negative buoyancy, thus representing submerged buoys and hung weights. A mooring line can operate in the ‘horizontal’ or ‘slack’ mode, and in the ‘vertical’ or ‘tension-moor’ mode. In the former case, a surface-floating ‘spring-buoy’ is allowed, as well as a linear slope of the sea bottom at the anchor.

Vibration analysis of marine diesel engine on test bed

Authors: Senjanović, I. | Čorić, V.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The oil crisis has given rise to the production of new types of the marine diesel engines with low fuel consumption. Their characteristics are long stroke, small number of cylinders and reduced number of revolutions. Dynamic behaviour of the new engines is not known yet. Therefore, a procedure for vibration analysis of these engines on the test bed utilizing the finite element method is presented in this paper. For illustration of the procedure, vibration analysis of a 4 RLA 90 engine has been performed. The procedure is verified comparing calculated and measured results.

A stochastic model for the effect of wind on the roll of a ship

Authors: Cardo, A. | Michelacci, G.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: We have examined a stochastic non-stationary model for the effect of a Poisson-distributed wind on the roll of a ship in a regular beam sea. As a result we obtain a majorizing function for the probability of capsizing. An application of the results to a small cargo ship is also given.
