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.

Abstract: In order to study the influence of starting acceleration and towrope length on towed barge trajectory a derivation of the towing equations of motion including surge is presented. Using non-dimensional equations, simulations were performed to investigate the effect of starting acceleration and towrope length on the towed barge course trajectory. The starting acceleration was shown to create large oscillations in the barge trajectory and reduce the lateral offset. The effect of shorter towrope lengths is also to reduce the lateral offset.

Abstract: This paper presents a practical calculation method of the ship maneuvering motion using the principal particulars of ship hull, propeller and rudder as basic input data. The mathematical model, which describes the ship maneuvering motion, is developed employing the coupled equations of surge, sway, yaw, roll and propeller revolution. Computations are made for various kinds and types of the merchant ships and for wide range of the maneuvering characteristics. The computed results show satisfactory agreements with the full-scale trial results. In addition, as an application study, the effect of the loading condition on the ship maneuverability is investigated through the …simulation calculations. The conclusion is that the calculation method of the present study is very useful and powerful for the predictions of the ship maneuverability at the time, such as the initial design stage etc., when the principal particulars of ship hull, propeller and rudder are known.
