Three or four well-documented engineering designs that have failed              under surprising circumstances will be studied.  In particular, the             research will focus on identifying what (if any) characteristics or             tip-offs were available during the design process.  In addition, a few          well-documented engineering designs that have not failed under                  surprising circumstances will be studied.  The surprising successes             will be compared with the surprising failures to determine what special         features may have been designed into the surprising successes.  From            these studies, generalized design principles will be created that will          result in more rational integration of constraints and an improved              basis for selecting among options.
