Abstract

The determination of and solution to a construction-technological problem with strong physical contradictions always occurs with a specific strategic goal. This can be the goal to resolve defects in the production of a product, to modernize the product itself, to develop competitive ideas with a future, etc. In reality, an engineer is always confronted by more or less complicated tasks that need to be solved quickly but also need to be examined carefully with an eye for the future. When a problem arises, its value, necessary time limits for the solution, acceptable investment in the search for a solution, and an entire series of other questions need to be examined.

Machines continue to develop and there will therefore always be something to invent.

The essence of TRIZ is to completely change the technique of producing new technical ideas.

TRIZ recommends thought action that is based on knowledge of the developmental laws of technical systems, instead of the selection of variations.
