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.

Proposal for the testing of weld metal from the viewpoint of brittle fracture initiation

Authors: van den Blink, W.P. | Nibbering, J.J.W.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: A method of testing weldmetal for its sensitivity to brittle crack initiation is described. The method is based upon considerations derived from the present stage of experience and on considerations of feasibility by industrial laboratories. Interested parties are invited to carry out tests on the basis of the proposal in order to investigate the practicability of the test and eventually to contribute to a collection of data necessary to improve testing requirements.

Torsional-axial vibrations of a ship’s propulsion system

Authors: van der Linden, C.A.M. | ’t Hart, H.H. | Dolfin, E.R.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: This report deals with an extensive investigation into the vibratory behaviour of the propulsion system of the motorship “Koudekerk” of the United Netherlands Shipping Company. It describes the procedure of calculation, the measuring technique applied and the processing of signals; it also analyzes and interprets the results of this processing. The results of calculation and those of measurements are compared, while estimated values of unknown parameters are corrected.

Experimental evaluation of heat transfer in a dry-cargo ships’ tank, using thermal oil as a heat transfer medium

Authors: van der Heeden, D.J.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: Little is known about the heat losses from double-bottom tanks. To obtain the necessary information, a test was carried out on such a tank of an 8,000 DWT freighter. The tanks of this ship were heated by means of thermal oil; the tank was loaded with low-viscosity fuel oil. Instrumentation was fitted to measure the heat flow through the tank areas, mean oil temperature, temperature of heating coil and temperatures in adjacent spaces. Furthermore the heat supplied by means of the thermal oil was determined. The test yielded much valuable information, including heat-transfer coefficients for all tank areas … Show more
