Troyka TRIZ instruction manual
This manual contains 26 tools that together comprise TRIZ. Each tool is presented in an easy-to-apply format. For each tool an example is included. With this manual, course graduates can perform TRIZ on real life problems.
Troyka TRIZ 40 Inventive Principles book
Inventive principles are generic solutions to resolve technical contradictions. The TRIZ method recognises 40 Inventive Principles, such as “Prior action”, “Rushing through”, “Phase transition” and so on. These principles are often perceived as abstract. To overcome this barrier with course participants, this book gives real life implementations of Inventive Principles in 370 illustrations.
