by Anne Kreamer in Harvard Business Review on March 27, 2012

In this article, Anne Kreamer addresses societal concerns of the declining educational systems by spotlighting simple opportunities to foster innovation. She discuses the mental benefits gained by intentionally reducing stress, broadening your interactions with novel stimuli and letting your mind roam. Taking tips from Dickens and Jobs, Kreamer persuades us to gain innovative enlightenment by deviating from the physical and intellectual norms of our day to day routine.

In this article Yousof Ardakani talks about solving the longevity problems in total should arhorplasty replacements using the TRIZ contradiction matrix and associated principles.  Even though many designs have been proposed to fix the shoulder joint replacement issues, those issues still exist.  Through the use of TRIZ techniques various improvements became clear after contradictions were identified and solved.

In this article Abram Teplitskiy and Roustem Kourmaev discuss the 40 Inventive Principles and provide examples of each principle being applied with respect to different construction applications.  The 40 Inventive Principles were developed to allow practitioners to create solutions to problems through the use of TRIZ methodologies.  Through these examples practitioners can observe the 40 Inventive Principles at work and learn to apply these methods to their own construction problems.

In this article Karen Tate and Dr. Ellen Domb discuss the 40 Inventive Principles and provide examples of each principle being applied with respect to technical issues.  The 40 Inventive Principles were developed to allow practitioners to create solutions to problems through the use of TRIZ methodologies.  Through these examples practitioners can observe the 40 Inventive Principles at work and learn to apply these methods to their own problems.

by Rony Mann and Gregory Frenklach in on October 10, 2011

In this article Ronny Mann and Gregory Frenklach discuss merging TOC TP and TRIZ methodologies in order to solve problems in systems that have both human and technical factors.  TOC TP is used to determine and resolve system constraints while TRIZ is utilized to provide solutions to technical problems in a system.  Developing a tool that melds these two methodologies together provides solutions to individual weaknesses, and creates useful and reliable solutions pertaining to systems with both human and technical components.

In this article Gregory Frenklach discusses the creation of problem solving methodologies based on TRIZ tools and based in differnet areas of human activities through a process called feature transfer.  In fields with attached human attributes such as management, advertising and marketing, problem solving methods must be developed to effectively find solutions.  Building these TRIZ-like methodologies for fields involving human activities is difficult, but feature transfer along with multi-level and object chain analysis make this process simpler.

by Joe A. Miller and Dr. Ellen Domb in on September 22, 2011

In this article Joe A. Miller and Ellen Domb discuss the functionality and outcomes of two different modeling techniques when confronted with process and development problems.  In order to solve a system problem it is necessary to model the system to determine the system’s functions, the relationship of those functions, and which functions are useful or harmful.  Three modeling systems discussed include the problem formulator, function analysis and causal loop models. These models reach the same possible solutions but take different paths, creating different perspectives and solutions not visible with the use a singular path.
