This research creates a design methodology by synthesizing the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) and cascade control based on Smith predictor. The particleboard glue supplying and dosing system case study defines the problem and the solution using the methodology proposed in the paper. Status difference existing in the gluing dosing process of particleboard production usually causes gl...

An overview of the development of the TRIZ problem solving approach is provided in the first part of this paper. Having emerged in Russia in 1946, the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving Technique (TRIZ) has been commonly used in the USA and Europe in the last few decades. TRIZ, as a method, has been used successfully to solve problems such as many of those typically arising during the process ...

The theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) was developed to solve inventive problems in different industrial fields. In recent decades, modern innovation theories and methods proposed several different knowledge sources, whose use requires extensive knowledge about different engineering domains. In order to facilitate the use of the TRIZ knowledge sources, this paper explores a heuristic TR...

BACKGROUND Medical equipment is closely related to personal health and safety, and this can be of concern to the equipment user. Furthermore, there is much competition among medical equipment manufacturers. Innovative design is the key to success for those enterprises. OBJECTIVE The design of medical equipment usually covers vastly different domains of knowledge. The application of modern des...

Defect signal is always a problem that interferes with the operation of fibre board gluing control system. Complex problem analysis and solving are an important evolutionary direction of TRIZ. This research creates a defect diagnosis methodology by synthesizing the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) and a Possibilistic C-Means (PCM) improved Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) method...

This paper introduces TRIZ-based problem definition process for developing students’ creative problem solving ability in engineering education. TRIZ is the theory of inventive problem solving and was developed by a Soviet engineer and researcher Genrich Altshuller and its effectiveness was already proved by lots of real problem solving in various areas. Main obstructive elements of creativity a...

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 ...

The paper examines Axiomatic Design in the light of its possible links to an evolved version of the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving, TRIZ. The paper highlights incompatibilities between the the Independence Axiom and the Ideality concept contained within TRIZ, but also several areas of mutually beneficial integration between the two methods – at philosophical, methodological and working too...
