1. A method for generating a component design model comprising:
defining a component design specification;
defining at least one variation mode parameter of a component manufacturing process, wherein the at least one variation mode parameter includes each of shift, tilt, shrink, bend, and twist;
constructing a parametric model relating the at least one variation mode parameter to the component design specification;
determining an expected output component based on the parametric model and comparing the expected output component to at least one as-manufactured component; and
defining the parametric model as accurate in response to the expected output component matching the at least one as-manufactured component within a predefined degree of accuracy.
