is pleased to announce the launch of the bi-annual

The issues will be published in
June and December each year

JOURNAL OF OCEAN AND SHIP TECHNOLOGY (JOST)
ISSN 0975-301X

Rapid expansion in sectors of ocean and ship technology is imperative for growth. Understanding the present technological needs and keeping in mind diversification of this broad area and the inter-disciplinary nature of research contributing to ocean and ship technology, this journal Journal of Ocean and Ship Technology (JOST) is being launched aimed at cooperating with Universities, Industries and Research Laboratories.

Published on behalf of the Department of Ocean Engineering & Naval Architecture, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, which has, since its inception in 1952, made giant strides in imparting the best technical education and in the past five decades made significant contributions to the development of Shipbuilding industry, the Navy and allied offshore industries, the issues will be published in January and July each year.
