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.

A contactless wave-height recorder for laboratory use

Authors: Knott, G.F. | Flower, J.O.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A description of a servo-operated wave-height measuring instrument is given. The instrument seeks to keep a probe at a given height above the water-surface using a capacitive-type proximity-transducer, which when used in conjunction with a linear displacement-transducer, enables a high accuracy to be achieved under dynamic conditions. The prototype instrument has been in use almost daily for the past year in the wave-tank at the University of Sussex.

Fluid memory effects on the trajectory of a submersible

Authors: Tinker, S.J.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Current mathematical models are based upon the assumption that the flow of the fluid around a manoeuvring vessel is quasi-steady. This assumption can be eliminated by incorporating the time history of the motion in the model. Impulse response functions for a submersible are calculated and used to determine the effect of introducing time history phenomena into the linear equations describing the sway and yaw motions in response to rudder movements. These effects are shown to be very small.
