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.

Roll-damping qualities of constructive stabilizers

Authors: Segal, Zelik | Segal, Alexander

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The paper presents the description and results of a model experiment carried out for comparison of the roll-damping qualities of continuous bilge keels and of wing ledges, installed in a staggered order, during rolling of the ship at zero forward speed. The damping qualities of constructive stabilizers were investigated also at motion of the ship ahead. The obtained data can be useful in subsequent experiments and in design of new sea vessels.

Keywords: Rolling, bilge keels, wings, staggered stabilizer, damping moment

Time-based damaged ship survivability: A quasi-static equivalent method

Authors: Bulian, Gabriele

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper presents a series of ideas to make a step forward in the assessment of flooded ship survivability on a time-dependent basis. An extension of the SEM (Static Equivalent Method) to a Quasi-Static Equivalent method (QSEM) is proposed to take into account the time variable and to address the case of multiple compartments. A capsize index based, conceptually, on static calculations is defined as a function of time and sea state. Capsize is considered in terms of both a first-excursion problem concerning the wave amplitude, and as the persistence of high-runs of waves above a critical level. An example … Show more

Viscous-flow calculations for bare hull DARPA SUBOFF submarine at incidence

Authors: Toxopeus, Serge

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: As part of a multi-nation study regarding CFD validation, conducted by the Submarine Hydrodynamics Working Group, viscous-flow calculations on the unappended hull-form of the DARPA SUBOFF sailing straight ahead and at oblique motion were conducted in order to verify the accuracy of the predictions. The study shows good general agreement with the experiments for local field values as well as for global quantities.

Keywords: DARPA SUBOFF, submarine, CFD, RANS, manoeuvring
