EASY
Working with DAVE is easy.
QUICK
DAVE minimizes double work.
All building block are re-usable. And this applies not only to physical objects such as ships or slings but also to workflows and optimizations.
CORRECT
DAVE lets you use shape based hydrostatics and fully flexible geometry. Less work, more realistic results.
REPORTS
Complete and reproducible using Jupyter
HUMAN
Both models and actions are stored as human readable (and editable) python code.
This enables quality and version control.
BEAUTIFUL
Works with Blender and VTK for beautiful and interactive 3D graphics and animations.
OPEN
The DAVE API and GUI are completely open-source and written in python.
Export of DAVE models to other software can easily be added.
FLEXIBLE
Being python, DAVE can be included in any workflow that supports running python code.
You can run DAVE on your laptop, workstation or server under either Windows or Linux.
AUTOMATED
Workflows using DAVE can be scripted completely. This includes parametric design and optimizations.
