The Institute was founded on 27 November 1948. It Is dedicated to tiie general advancement o f knowledge i n the many aspects o f ocean transport. T o reach this objective, Institute committees promote the study o f ...
Ship Maneuvering and Management; Ocean Navigation;
Marine T r a f f i c Engineering; and Ocean Engineering.
Our i n t e n t i o n in publishing this compilation is to acquaint scholars and research workers everywiiere with the nature and objectives o f our Institute, and the activities o f our mem-bers. The content selection ( f o r which we are indebted to our Study Evaluation Committee
members) was made f r o m material we published — in Japanese — over the last ten years. Tlie included studies are representative o f the research engaged i n by our members.
It is our hope that this compilation w i l l help others to understand the scope o f our ac-tivities; and that f r o m tliis understanding w i l l come further development i n the study o f navigation and its related fields, and increased international maritime research collaboration.
