Ships and Offshore Structures

Ships and Offshore Structures is an international, peer-reviewed journal which provides an authoritative forum for publication and discussion of recent advances and future trends in all aspects of technology across the maritime industry.The Journal covers the entire range of issues and technologies related to both ships (including merchant ships, war ships, polar ships etc.) and offshore structures (floating and fixed offshore platforms, offshore infrastructures, underwater vehicles etc.) with a strong emphasis on practical design, construction and operation. Specific areas of interest include, but are not limited to:Initial planning and contractingDesignHydrodynamics and propulsionStructures and materialsStability and safetyConstruction and productionOperation and lifetime careMachinery and marine engineeringOcean environmental engineeringArctic and polar engineeringSubsea engineeringRenewable energyConversion and decommissioningRisk assessment and managementPapers of interest to Ships and Offshore Structures will thus be broad-ranging, and will include contributions concerned with principles, theoretical/numerical modelling, model/prototype testing, applications, case studies and operational records, which may take advantage of computer-aided methodologies, and information and digital technologies. Whilst existing journals deal with technologies as related to specific topics, Ships and Offshore Structures provides a systematic approach to individual technologies, to more efficiently and accurately characterize the functioning of entire systems. The Journal is intended to bridge the gap between theoretical developments and practical applications for the benefit of academic researchers and practising engineers, as well as those working in related governmental, public policy and regulatory bodies. Ships and Offshore Structures publishes articles in the form of:Original research papersPractitioner reportsTechnology case studiesAnalytical commentariesReviewsAll published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.

《船舶和海上结构物》是一本国际同行评议的期刊，它提供了一个权威论坛，用于出版和讨论整个海洋行业技术各方面的最新进展和未来趋势。该杂志涵盖了与船舶（包括商船、战船、极地船等）和海上结构物（浮动和固定式海上平台、海上基础设施、水下航行器等）有关的所有问题和技术，并着重于实际设计、建造和操作。具体关注领域包括但不限于：初步规划和承包设计流体力学与推进结构和材料稳定性和安全性建设和生产手术和终身护理机械与海洋工程海洋环境工程北极与极地工程海底工程可再生能源转换和退役风险评估与管理因此，对船舶和海上结构物感兴趣的论文将涉及范围广泛，将包括有关原理、理论/数值建模、模型/原型测试、应用、案例研究和操作记录的贡献，这些贡献可能利用计算机辅助方法、信息和数字技术。虽然现有的期刊处理与特定主题相关的技术，但船舶和海上结构物为单个技术提供了一种系统方法，以更有效和准确地描述整个系统的功能。该杂志旨在弥合理论发展与实际应用之间的差距，以造福学术研究人员和执业工程师，以及在相关政府、公共政策和监管机构工作的人员。船舶和海上结构物以以下形式出版文章：原始研究论文从业者报告技术案例研究分析评论评论本杂志所有发表的研究文章都经过了严格的同行评审，通过最初的编辑筛选和独立专家评审的匿名评审。
