Quiz 2: Application of TRIZ – 1
Q1. Now it is your turn to use the contradiction matrix!
Look at our list of 39 parameters, choose an improving parameter and worsening for heating and air-conditioning of electric vehicles, and give a reason for your suggestion.
Choose an improving parameter for heating and air-conditioning of electric vehicles.
Just type the number of the parameter.
ViewQ2. Give a reason for the selection of your improving parameter in Question 1.
What do you think? Your answer cannot be more than 10000 characters.
ViewQ3. Choose a worsening parameter for heating and air-conditioning of electric vehicles.
Just type the number of the parameter.
ViewQ4. Give a reason for the selection of your worsening parameter in Question 3.
What do you think? Your answer cannot be more than 10000 characters.
ViewQuiz 3: Application of TRIZ – 2
Q1. Now here’s another exercise for you to practice TRIZ.
A classic contradiction exists in the messaging given to teenagers and young adults in some sectors of society and that given or perceived by women in their thirties. We tend to encourage young teenagers and adults not to have unplanned pregnancies.
There are multiple reasons put forward for this, many quite justifiable in the modern context. A dramatic switch is sometimes perceived by women in their thirties, associated with egg fertility rates, where there can be strong pressure, be it from society, peers, or self, to become pregnant.
This perceived contradiction: ‘Don’t get pregnant’ and ‘have a child before it’s too late’ may be amenable to suggestions from the TRIZ creativity tool.
You’ll need to:
- Explore the contradiction
- Look at our list of 39 parameters and identify possible improving and worsening parameters for this contradiction.
- Type the number of the parameter in the below box and give reason(s) for the selection of your parameters. e.g. [5] – Reliability
What do you think? Your answer cannot be more than 10000 characters.
ViewReason: The improving parameter could be related to the speed of achieving the desired outcome, which is having a child. In the case of teenagers and young adults, the improvement would mean delaying pregnancy until they are ready to provide a stable environment for a child. For women in their thirties, the improvement would mean increasing the speed of conceiving if they desire to have children due to the potential decline in fertility with age.
2.Worsening Parameter: Parameter 6: Energy Efficiency
Reason: The worsening parameter could be associated with the energy or effort required to achieve the desired outcome. For teenagers and young adults, worsening energy efficiency would mean making the process of having a child more difficult or energy-consuming, discouraging unplanned pregnancies. For women in their thirties, worsening energy efficiency would imply that the process of conceiving becomes more challenging and energy-draining, highlighting the potential difficulties associated with delayed motherhood.
rameter: 6 (Energy Efficiency)
ViewSuggested Inventive Principle: 31 – Porous Materials
Reason: The suggested inventive principle, “Porous Materials,” implies introducing intermediary steps or barriers in the process. In the context of the contradiction, it could mean creating a structured path for young adults and teenagers to delay pregnancies until they are ready (improved speed) while making the process of conceiving more challenging or complex for women in their thirties (worsened energy efficiency). This principle aims to strike a balance between the two contradictory messages by introducing controlled barriers and pathways to parenthood based on individual circumstances and readiness.
