(3D-printing failures)due to errors in design, operation, part placement, material selection, etc. and the failures due to3D printers’ malfunctions (3D printer failures).3D-Printing Failures 3D-printing failures can be classified into three types based on their severity: (a)catastrophic 3D-printing failures where the 3D printers are damaged; (b) complete 3D-printingfailures where the failed objects cannot be repaired, and (c) partial 3D-printing failures where theobjects can be repaired by using some post-printing processes.Sometimes, early during printing, a corner of the printed part warps up and separates from theprinting platform. Since this corner is now higher than the tip of the extruder nozzle, the nozzlecan push all the built

engineering students’ approaches to WSPsThe current study builds on previous empirical research about engineering students’ approachesto a specific WSP: water shortage in Jordan. In a phenomenographic study, we previouslyidentified four distinct approaches towards the problem1,2. In an order of increasing complexity,these approaches are called (A.) simplify and avoid, (B.) divide and control, (C.) isolate andsuccumb, and (D.) integrate and balance. Approach A is characterized by a general lack ofsincere engagement with the problem. Approach B represents an instrumental approach todealing with the problem. The problem is assumed to be divisible into independent parts that canbe solved in isolation from each other. Approach C differs from approach B in
