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.

Resistance tests with models of two fishing boats

Authors: Hell, Antz

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Two fishing boat models of about 85 feet in length have been tested at different drafts to compare the resistance qualities. One model is a traditional Swedish wooden trawler, the other one is of a form optimized according to the FAO/NPL regression analysis. The results show that the Swedish trawler is inferior from a resistance point of view. The optimized form gives very good results and also a good correlation between model experiments and theoretical calculations.

Turbulent-flow drag reduction by polymers from marine and fresh water bacteria

Authors: Kenis, Paul R.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Bacteria which produce drag-reducing polymers have been isolated from eleven hydrodynamic test facilities in the United States, Great Britain, and France, and appear to be ubiquitous in all fresh and ocean water. These polymers are likely extracellular polysaccharides and have been produced by bacteria which grow at either cold, moderate, or high temperatures. Sugar enrichment studies suggest that the absence of suitable energy and carbon sources limit polymer production in natural waters. In order to maintain constant drag in hydrodynamic test facilities, it is recommended that primary production by algae be prevented and degradable organic material be eliminated in order … Show more
