Correction to: Sources of creativity stimulation for designing the next generation of technical systems: correlations with R&D designers’ performance

Abstract

Author would like to make corrections in the original publication. Author would like to add a reference to the part 4.3.1 (page 11, in the middle of line 12). The stimuli based on the technical trends of evolution were five stimuli that three of them were ready as TRIZ material course (Souchkov 2017) and two others were prepared by authors. The reference to the added citation is: Souchkov V (2017) Training course handbook on TRIZ training for technology and engineering. ICG Training & Consulting, Enschede, p 284.

Patent Data for Engineering Design: A Review

“…They examined how the analogical distance (Chan et al, 2011;Fu et al, 2015;Srinivasan et al, 2018), commonness (Chan et al, 2011), and the modality of examples (Chan et al, 2011) influence DbA-based ideation outcomes. Similarly, Saliminamin et al (2019) used patents as idea triggers to explore the effect of precedents and design strategies on idea generation. Moreover, a few recent design theory studies mined bibliometric, citation and classification information of patent documents to reveal the fundamental patterns in designers' exploratory behaviours (Alstott et al, 2017), the causality between design novelty and potential impact (He and Luo, 2017) and the growing complexity of the design and invention process .…”
