The capability of anticipating the main features of future products and related manufacturing processes is more and more a critical asset in industry, due to the innovation-based competition of markets and to the extremely reduced lead time of modern product development cycles. The paper presents a survey of TRIZ, the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving, as a reference methodology to support de...

Firstly, in order to overcome the shortcoming of using only AD or TRIZ solely,and solve the problems currently existed in weapon equipment requirement demonstration, the paper construct the method system of weapon equipment requirement demonstration combining QFD ,AD,TRIZ,FA . Then, we construct a CAI model frame of weapon equipment requirement demonstration, which include requirement decompose...

Functional design is a process includes function understanding, function recognition, function representation, function modeling and functionto-structure mapping. The effect in TRIZ is extended by multi-pole effect model and effect chain modes, and then the functions and flows in TRIZ are reclassified. The combinative relationships among functions are discussed, and the function modeling based ...

To make artificial knee joints have lower long-term wear rate, a new method for reformed design of sagittal femoral condylar geometry based on TRIZ (Theory of Inventive Problem Solving) was proposed. Firstly, according to the development history of sagittal femoral condylar geometry and evolution theory of TRIZ, future state of the evolution line of femoral condylar geometry in sagittal plane w...

In this paper I tested whether Contradictory Matrix with 40 Inventive Principles, the simplest instrument from the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ), is a useful approach to a real-life PCR scenario. The PCR challenge consisted of standardization of fluorescence melting curve measurements in Competitive Amplification of Differentially Melting Amplicons (CADMA) PCR for multiple targets....

This paper describes the practical case study on finding the innovative conceptual idea of super water-saving toilet system using TRIZ. The physical contradiction in TRIZ with Quality Function Deployment (QFD), is defined for the fixed ceramic S type trap on saving water with preventing the bad smell from septic tank. The concept of flexible tube for saving water in toilet is obtained by using ...

In this paper, the trend of FEM which is one of core tools of CAE and the future of CAE are examined in terms of TRIZ concept. This observation leads to the necessity of engineering creativity. This paper reports our successful experiences of implementing systematic innovation tools into engineering design classes. Also potential revolutionary change of engineering education is hinted by extend...

Technology innovation and creative problem solving are necessary for long-term enterprise survival. Making strategic decisions for product development is a key step in the technical innovation process. Computer-aided innovation (CAI) systems based on TRIZ (Theory of inventive problem solving) support strategic ideas generation of innovation. TRIZ methods are applied to assess the maturity of a ...

In product development, the chosen product architecture often possesses characteristics of both modular and integral design. Within a modular architecture, a Function-Behavior-Structure (FBS) model has been applied to describe modules and their interfaces. To resolve emerging interface conflicts, several strategies based on both modular and integral action have been formulated. The strategies e...
