This document reports the first phase of an ongoing project aimed at combining technology roadmapping (TRM), a methodology for technology and innovation planning, and TRIZ, an approach for systematic inventive problem solving. The overall objective is to develop an enhanced methodology for systematic innovation planning, strategy and problem solving. This report is focussed on providing an unde...

The process of product innovation consists of three stages, which are fuzzy front end (FFE), new product development (NPD) and commercialization (COM). Theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) is a systematic approach to find innovative solutions for technical problems. The patterns and lines of TRIZ are applied to FFE to produce new ideas. The principles, standard solutions and effects of TR...

Product quality is the most important issue in the Computer Numerical Control (CNC) process. Hence, with exercise equipment parts Surface Roughness as the target, this study selected Spindle speed, Cutting depth, Feeding, and Tool runoff, as control parameters in CNC parametric optimization of target quality. By using the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) to define the Cause and Effect...

Inventive design requires specific competences. Designing means create new concepts out of acquired knowledge. To reach such a goal cognitive competences are required. TRIZ is a theory for inventive problem solving which is based on the abstraction of knowledge and of the description of the problems to solve, to be able to make analogies with any technical domain. This principle of abstraction ...

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...

Inventive problems from many domains are usually problems we are not able to solve. This problem insolvability is often due to the incomplete or unmatched representation model of the problem that does not correspond to the given problem. In this paper, we introduce two problem solving theories for the solutionless problems: Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) and dialectical based methods and...

Different problems in the process of product innovation are often caused by external environmental changes product. There is a lack research on classifying associated with environment to aid applying tools Theory Solution Inventive Problems (TRIZ) for problem-solving. This paper proposes Cynefin framework classify into disorder, chaotic, complexity, complicated and simple areas according change...

In order to go beyond optimization strategies in Computer Aided Innovation, it has been demonstrated that model changes are required [1,2] during Inventive Problem Solving Process (IPSP). TRIZ proposes a universal way of generating model changes thanks to contradiction statement and contradiction solving but it does not provide methods or tools for obtainting them from typical CAD or other kind...

The Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) has been widely recognized as a powerful systematic innovation technique that can be applied to a wide arrange of disciplines. This paper focuses on engineering design and illustrates how modeling methods already familiar to engineering designers can be adapted for use in TRIZ. Specifically, the 'black-box' modeling technique, common in problem for...
