Theory and Practice of Inventive Problem Solving

Study and Application Tips

• Study the basic principles of TRIZ (Theory of Inventive Problem Solving) to understand how to systematically approach solving complex problems.
• Practice using the algorithm for inventive problem solving (ARIZ) to learn how to structure the process of finding solutions.
• Analyze examples of inventions and patents to see how TRIZ principles are applied in practice.
• Use the contradiction analysis method to identify and resolve conflicts within systems.
• Develop skills in forecasting the evolution of technical systems to anticipate possible directions of their development.
• Apply morphological analysis and synthesis methods to generate new ideas and solutions.
• Study the laws of technical system evolution to understand the patterns of their change and use them to create innovations.
• Practice using techniques to eliminate technical and physical contradictions to enhance solution effectiveness.
• Use the «small steps» method for gradual improvement of systems and processes.
• Develop creative thinking and idea generation skills through regular exercises and practice.
