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.

Propeller – hull vortex cavitation

Authors: Huse, E.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A special type of cavitation, here denoted as ‘propeller-hull vortex cavitation’ (hereafter abbreviated PHV cavitation), has been investigated in the cavitation tunnels of The Norwegian Ship Model Experiment Tank. This cavitation appears in the form of vortices with cavitating cores extending from the propeller to the hull above and ahead of it. There are indications that such cavitation also takes place on certain ships in full scale, and that it may give rise to afterbody noise and vibrations. Systematic observations have been carried out to investigate the effects of afterbody form, tip clearance, propeller loading and cavitation number. Small … Show more

Improvement of course stability by the subsidiary automatic control

Authors: Koyama, T.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: An investigation has been made to improve the course keeping qualities of an unstable ship by adding a subsidiary automatic control to the manual steering. For this, use has been made of results of full scale experiments with a 200.000 DWT tanker and a simulation study. Some instructive results have been obtained.
