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.

The snaking of open ships

Authors: Steneroth, E.R. | Ulfvarson, A.Y.J.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The structural behaviour of open ships does not conform with the analytical theory normally used. Especially in the forward part of an open ship considerable discrepancies can be found between theory and reality. By closer interpretation of results from finite element calculations it is possible to explain the snaking phenomenon of open ships. Secondary bending stresses of considerable magnitude may occur in the deck structure.

Formulation and computer-aided solution of a class of propeller design problems

Authors: Vassilopoulos, L.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: The design problem for conventional propellers is first re-examined in the context of optimization theory to obtain a clearer understanding of the nature of design variables and their influence on design objectives and constraints. After a brief comparison of alternate methods of design, analytical techniques are reviewed for use in design problems that are best solved using the ‘power’ approach. An improved lifting-line-theory computer program is next presented and a detailed discussion given of how design parameters must either be selected, varied in a systematic fashion, or obtained as output of the design process. The utility of lifting surface theory … Show more
