《船舶研究雜志》是一份季刊，提供有關(guān)流體動力學、推進、船舶運動、結(jié)構(gòu)和振動應(yīng)用研究的高技術(shù)論文。盡管該雜志要求論文提供推進船舶和海洋科學與工程的研究成果，但大多數(shù)貢獻直接影響到其他學科，如土木和機械工程、應(yīng)用數(shù)學和數(shù)值分析。高質(zhì)量的論文來自美國、加拿大和海外，既有權(quán)威機構(gòu)的代表，也有新的研究人員。

The Journal of Ship Research is a quarterly publication providing highly technical papers on applied research in hydrodynamics, propulsion, ship motions, structures, and vibrations. While the Journal requires that papers present the results of research that advances ship and ocean science and engineering, most contributions bear directly on other disciplines, such as civil and mechanical engineering, applied mathematics, and numerical analysis. High quality papers are contributed from the U.S., Canada and overseas, with representation from established authorities as well as new researchers.
