ASSET 6.3 Training Part II: The LEAPS Toolkit

The document provides an overview of the LEAPS Toolkit, which is a data architecture and set of tools for ship design. It describes several tools included in the toolkit, such as the LEAPS Editor for viewing and editing ship models, SHCP-L for hydrostatic analysis, IHDE for resistance and seakeeping simulations, RSDE for design space exploration, EMAT for manpower estimation, and ISA for ship arrangements. The document explains that the toolkit uses a common data model and allows additional tools to be created to analyze ship designs. It notes that many of the tools are available for general use while others are in development or limited release.
