SYNOPSIS
TRIZ is a theory created to systematize processes and procedures
related to innovation and creativity in the solution of problems. TRIZ is a Russian
acronym which can be expressed in English as ‘Theory for the Solution of
Inventive Problems’ and consists of a theory, operating procedures and a range of
tools created by GenrichSaulovichAltshuller (1926-1998) from 1946, with the
objective of capturing the creative process in technical and technological contexts,
codifying it and making it repeatable and applicable, in short a proper theory
of invention. TRIZ allows the analysis, the structuring of models and, finally,
the solution of problems with a systematic approach based upon a series of
subsequent stages and operating tools. Up to this day, the TRIZ methodology has
provedto be the most efficient to solve inventive problem. The 2 days workshop
will cover
Structured Problem Solving Process Function Analysis Cause & Effect Chain Analysis Trimming Ideality Engineering Contradiction 39 System Parameters 40 Inventive Principles Contradiction Matrix
