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 ratio-of-polynomials curve-fitting of seawave spectra

Authors: Flower, J.O. | Vijeh, N.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Seawave spectra are described in mathematical form normally by Pierson-Moskowitz-type distributions. Unfortunately the equations arising from such descriptions are difficult to manipulate in analytical investigations. In other branches of engineering analysis it is common to take a ratio-of-polynomials form as mathematical representations of spectral distributions. Such forms have been studied in much detail and are well documented in the literature. In this note we show how seawave-type spectra may be fitted by the ratio-of-polynomials form in a simple way by an adaptation of a method due to Sanathanan and Koerner [5].

Behaviour and design of stiffened plates under predominantly compressive loads

Authors: Guedes Soares, C. | Søreide, T.H.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Consideration is given to the behaviour of unstiffened plate elements and of stiffened panels. The main parameters that influence their load-carrying capacity are identified and their effects are discussed. Existing methods to predict plate strength are presented and a special treatment is provided of simplified methods for use in design work. A series of calculations is performed with various design methods to provide a basis for comparison. Predictions of the simplified methods are compared with experimental results and numerical calculations to assess the accuracy of present day stiffened plate design methods.
