The main themes of this Symposium are Design Synthesis, Production, Ship Hydromechanics, Ship Structures and Materials and Offshore Engineering. Proposals for over two hundred papers have been received for PRADS '98 from 25 countries, and 126 have been accepted for presentation at the Conference. Given the high quality of the proposed papers, it has been a difficult task for the Local Organizing Committee to make a proper balanced selection. Some topics, which attracted many papers, were Design Loads, Design for Ultimate Strength, Impact of Safety and Environment, Grounding and Collision, Resistance and Flow, Seakeeping, Fatigue Considerations and Propulsor and Propulsion Systems. The great current interest in these topics and the high quality of the papers guarantee a successful Conference.
