The interviewees believed that failure and risk, in addition to other constructs such ascollaboration and empathy, were integral to Lean Launch. Risk and failure were also thingsperceived of as being critical in the design process. The authors note that, “the use of a LeanLaunch curriculum would allow engineering design instructors to teach and assess importantengineering skills...such as...failure.” Finally, Wang and Wong (2004) conducted a researchstudy of entrepreneurial interest; the scale that they use includes items

Contrasting traditional CAD, knowledge-based CAD has integratedCAD, computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and knowledge-based systems as a design supporttool [6]. The objective of the knowledge-based CAD system has continued and advanced byintroducing knowledge acquisition, integration, exchange, and sharing [6][7]. From a practicalpoint of view, one can view this system as knowledge-based engineering (KBE) [8]. Within thehierarchies of KBE applications, the generative model belongs to a subset of the whole domain.Within the scope of this knowledge system, generative design is an essential part of the futureengineering design curriculum.

Henceprocess and structural factors affecting part accuracy in machining processes are quitecomplicated. CNC machine tools only minimizes a small portion of these errors since CNC oftendoes not utilize sensor data to compensate for geometric-thermal errors and errors generated bythe cutting process.
