This AIChE course provides a basic introduction to the Inventive Problem Solving Process known as “TRIZ” (Russian acronym for “Theory of Inventive Problem Solving”). TRIZ is a structured, “left-brained” approach to breakthrough innovation through the use of patterns of invention documented in the most inventive of the world’s patents. This analysis demonstrates an overall algorithm, which when followed, allows anyone to provide breakthrough and novel solutions to problems as well as new product and business concepts.
Each participant will receive a complete set of course notes, a copy of the TRIZ 40 Inventive Principles, a copy of all course problems and solutions, and a copy of the book, Hands On Systematic Innovation, by Darrell Mann.
You Will Learn
- Patterns of invention and how to use breakthrough ideas from parallel universe technology areas
- The basic TRIZ problem solving algorithm and its basic tools including Ideal Final Result, resource identification and use, contradiction resolution, 40 inventive principles and the TRIZ contradiction table
- How to use TRIZ for failure prediction and analysis
- How to use TRIZ for business and organizational problem solving
- TRIZ Lines of Evolution and how to use them for strategic planning, new product development, and forecasting
- How to integrate TRIZ with other enterprise tools and assessments
- How to integrate TRIZ effectively within your organization
