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.

Ship motions in regular and irregular seas

Authors: Korvin-Kroukovsky, B.V. | Lewis, Edward V.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The present paper is written as a record of an informal lecture delivered by the authors at the Office of Naval Research in Washington, D.C., on May 3, 1954. It consists of two distinct parts: the first describes the application of a theory of rigid body motions to a ship moving in a regular head or following sea; the second part deals with the problem of the representation of an irregular storm sea and of the theory of ship motions in irregular seas. The theory of ship motions in a regular sea, which is presented first, can be considered … Show more

On Michell’s expression for the velocity potential of the flow around a ship

Authors: Timman, R. | Vossers, G.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: An expression for the velocity potential of the flow around a slender ship moving at constant speed is derived by Fourier integral transforms. The solution is made unique by the condition that at infinity ahead of the ship the velocity must vanish. The result obtained with Michell’s expression is shown to be equivalent to that obtained using the method of Havelock, who introduces an artificial dissipation factor.
