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...

• Patent documents contain important technical knowledge and research results. They have high quality information to inspire designers in product development. However, they are lengthy and have much noisy results such that it takes a lot of human efforts for analysis. And due to the fact that hidden and unanticipated information plays a dominant role for TRIZ user, it is difficult to discern ma...

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 ...

In today’s methodological world, TRIZ has undoubtedly its place in the myriad of methods and tools useful for engineers in companies. Mostly dedicated for solving inventive problems, TRIZ is appreciated for its capacity to widen the scope of possible domains in which the solution is sought after. In that regards, it is often perceived by companies as a potential replacer of creativity technique...

Paper is devoted to consideration of the practical application of the Algorithm of Inventive Problem Solving (ARIZ) during the development process of the robot adaptive vacuum feet. Also TRIZ technology evolution trends have been used for development of the new structures of the autonomous climbing robot. These robots are being used for cleaning, finishing and diagnostics of arbitrarily oriente...

Design is situated, which means the explicit consideration of the state of environment, the knowledge and experience of the designer and the interaction between the designer and the environment during designing. Central to the notion of situated design is the notion of design situation and constructive memory. When Computer-aided innovation systems (CAIs) are applied in the design, the environm...

Reduction of environmental impact and energy consumption becomes a crucial issue. In the field of product manufacturing, development and improvement of products that reduce environmental impacts are called the design for environment (DfE). This paper proposes a systematic methodology of the DfE through identification and resolution of contradictions based on the concept of TRIZ (Teoriya Resheni...

Product technology maturity foresting is vital for any enterprises to hold the chance for innovation and keep competitive for a long term. The Theory of Invention Problem Solving (TRIZ) is acknowledged both as a systematic methodology for innovation and a powerful tool for technology forecasting. Based on TRIZ, the state -of-the-art on the technology maturity of product and the limits of applic...
