Abstract
This report contains the user manual for the SIMPACT tool (SIMulation based ship concept imPACT evaluation tool) for evaluation of novel ship concepts. The tool consists of two sub tools. The logistics analysis tool (LA tool), and the MASS analysis tool (MA tool) for cost and emission analysis. SIMPACT can be used to make an initial design of a waterborne transport system and to evaluate the logistical performance through a set of KPIs. Furthermore, SIMPACT can estimate energy consumption for ships operating in the transport system, transported cargo volumes, emissions, and costs.
