SIT(Systematic Inventive Thinking), a simplified version of TRIZ, has gained in popularity and used worldwide over recent years. In this paper, the relationship between 5 thinking tools of SIT and 40 inventive principles of TRIZ was examined. For the purpose, many practical TRIZ cases applied in a world-class consumer electronics company were analyzed. The analysis showed that SIT thinking tools were composed of 11 principles in 40 TRIZ inventive principles. Among SIT 5 thinking tools, division and attribute dependency were most frequently used. However, heavily used inventive principles such as preliminary action and beforehand cushioning were not included in SIT. If these principles are additionally reflected in SIT, the effectiveness of the thinking tools will be significantly increased.

Purpose: SIT(Systematic Inventive Thinking) has been widely used in recent years. The validity of the five thinking tools of SIT is examined, and how to improve the inventive thinking tools is investigated. Methods: Frequency analysis on the usage of the TRIZ 40 inventive principles was used. Inventive thinking tools are derived by eliminating principles with low frequencies and grouping similar principles together. Results: Segmentation, prior action, combining, extraction, cushion in advance, transformation of properties are most frequently used among the 40 principles of TRIZ. The most frequently used principles and similar principles with them are grouped into new inventive thinking tools. Two of them, division and attribute dependency, belong to the 5 thinking tools of SIT, and the others, proactive measures, combination and reversal, do not. Conclusion: The newly identified inventive thinking tools are division, combination, proactive measures, attribute dependency, and reversal. The new five inventive thinking tools are quite efficient since they can cover more than two thirds of the TRIZ 40 inventive principles.

The study proposes multiple TRIZ contradiction solution strategies for addressing PC (Physical Contradiction) and TC (Technical Contradiction) by implementing TRIZ cause-and-effect tree. The problem associated with TC of the ends is solved by PC of means which employs a causal relationship between causes and effects. The TRIZ contradiction solution strategies demonstrated in this research are classified into 3 types of combined strategy as follows: 1. To-Be PC and AS-Is PC, 2.To-Be PC and As-Is TC, 3.As-Is PC and To-Be TC. The combined strategy of To-Be PC and As-Is PC is similar to a divide-and-conquer technique. This strategy adopts parallel strategies using 4 separation principles in time, in space, between parts and the whole, and upon condition of two reversed-PCs. Moreover, its application elucidates the conflict relationship of two TCs from the study. The integrated 4 separation principles and 40 inventive principles present an effective synergy effect from the combination, and further addresses the problems in the TRIZ contradiction resolution strategies. Combined strategy of To-Be PC and As-Is TC implements the 40 inventive principles that To-Be PC of the means resolves the As-Is TC of the ends. Combined strategy of As-Is PC and To-Be TC also uses inventive principles to the As-Is PC of the means to solve the To-Be TC of the ends. In addition, propositional and logical relationship of necessary and sufficient conditions between TC and PC is used to support the validity of 3 TRIZ contradiction solution strategies. In addition, 3 other strategies of necessary and sufficient conditions validate the contraposition relationship of the truth table. This study discusses TRIZ case studies from National Quality Circle Contest from the years between 2011 and 2014 to provide the usage guidelines of TRIZ contradiction solutions for quality purposes. Examining analysis from the case studies and investigating combined strategies allows the users to obtain comprehensive understanding.

The founder of TRIZ, Genrich Altshuller, discovered forty patterns of inventive solutions, known as 40 Inventive Principles, extracting them from tens of thousands of technical patents. It was found further that 40 Inventive Principles are applicable not only for every technical field, but also for non-technical spheres - finance, business, management, marketing, social relations, education and etc. This paper extends the area of reliability through TRIZ. Enclosed are several examples how 40 Inventive Principles have been used in the reliability enhancement in the literature.

Creative problem solving has become an important issue in many fields. Among problems, dilemma need creative solutions. New creative and innovative problem solving strategies are required to handle the contradiction relations of the dilemma problems because most creative and innovative cases solved contradictions inherent in the dilemmas. Among various kinds of problem solving theories, TRIZ provides the concept of physical contradiction as a common problem solving principle in inventions and patents. In TRIZ, 4 separation principles solve the physical contradictions of given problems. The 4 separation principles are separation in time, separation in space, separation within a whole and its parts, and separation upon conditions. Despite this attention, an accurate definitions of the separation principles of TRIZ is missing from the literature. Thus, there have been several different interpretations about the separation principles of TRIZ. The different interpretations make problems more ambiguous to solve when the problem solvers apply the 4 separation principles. This research aims to fill the gap in several ways. First, this paper classify the types of contradiction relations and the contradiction solving dimensions based on the Butterfly model for contradiction solving. Second, this paper compares and analyzes each contradiction relation type with the Butterfly diagram. The contributions of this paper lies in reducing the problem space by recognizing the structures and the types of contradiction problems exactly.

TRIZ는 원래 러시아인인 알트슐러에 의해 개발되어 기술 분야의 문제 해결에 활용 되어 왔지만, 최근에는 Darrell Mann에 의해 비 기술 영역에도 적용이 되기 시작하였다. 국내에는 1995년 LG전자에서 최초로 도입하여 현재는 삼성, 포스코 등 많은 기업들이 문제 해결도구로 사용하고 있다. TRIZ 문제 해결 방법은 문제를 정의하고, RCA(Root Cause Analysis)를 통해 근본원인을 찾아내어 기술적 모순과 물리적 모순을 정의 하고 있다. TRIZ는 모순을 극복하는 것이 문제를 해결하는 것이다. 본 연구는 문제 해결 방법인 TRIZ 원리를 이용하여 비기술 분야인 물류 영역의 개선에 적용하고자 하였다. 실제 "L" 기업의 물류 재작업이라는 물류 운영 개선을 하기 위해 TRIZ 방법론 중 RCA(Root Cause Analysis)분석, 모순 정의, 40가지 발명원리를 사용하여 문제 해결을 위한 아이디어 도출 및 적용 하였다. 본 연구는 TRIZ를 비기술 분야에 활용하고자 하는 향후 연구자들에게 도움이 되고자 하였다.

Most of people who are engaged in research and development find it difficult to solve the engineering problems creatively due to the lack of ideas. TRIZ is one of the emerging problem solving techniques that leads us to a very useful and clear solution. TRIZ consists of several tools such as ideal final result (IFR), physical and technical contradictions, 40 invention principles, resource, effect, etc. However, many designers think that TRIZ is hard to be applied to a design problem since there are several tools in TRIZ. Machine designers may want to see which tool is more effective than others. Thus, this paper provides sample solutions of a design problem: holder design for the bottle etching machine by applying several TRIZ tools. Difficulties in applying TRIZ to a design problem are discussed.

This study aims to find the major creative ideation patterns embedded in the commercially valuable patents in the mobile communication industry. For the purpose, we analyze 171 cases of the patent infringement lawsuit filed by Nokia in the United States. It is examined that what kind of TRIZ inventive principles and SIT thinking tools were applied to resolve technical contractions in each of the 171 cases respectively. Among the 40 inventive principles of TRIZ, 'feedback' principle was used mostly and 'division' principle the next. Among the 5 thinking tools of SIT, 'attribute dependency' mostly used, and 'division' the next. This suggests that what kind of inventive principles or thinking tools should be considered preferentially to resolve technical contradictions in practically important technical problems in the mobile communication industry.
