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 singing of ship propellers

Authors: van de Voorde, C.B.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Possible causes of singing of ship propellers and means of curing it are mentioned. An explanation of the experimental results of the tests carried out by Heskestad and Olberts is given. A condition of similitude for the investigation of singing on a model-propeller in a cavitation tunnel is put forward.

Non-metallic materials used in shipbuilding

Authors: Rayner, L.W.A.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This paper describes briefly the types of non-metallic materials used in warships; it gives a summary of the problems that face a warship designer when choosing materials and describes the latest trends. Apart from boats and small craft, non-metallic materials are mainly used for “fittings”, and items incidental to the hull construction. A section has been devoted to “paints”.

The viscosity correction of symmetrical model lines for wave-resistance analysis

Authors: Chang, P.K. | Strandhagen, A.G.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: It is known that improved correlation between experimental and computed wave resistance can be obtained by taking into account various effects, such as nonlinearity (fullness) of the model, the free-surface wave, and viscosity, in the theory of wave resistance. This paper concerns only the viscosity effect and the resulting virtual modification of the model lines. It is shown here that the modifications because of viscosity effect can be computed rationally from the performance of the boundary layer. The thickness of the layer and especially the size of the separated region in the cases where separation occurs determine the magnitude of … Show more
