The conflict-problem-solving CAD software integrating TRIZ into eco-innovation
Technology often conflicts with environment. Design engineers always make efforts to obtain the balance between technical innovation and environmental protection despite full of hard tasks. This paper presents the conflict-problem-solving CAD software, Eco-Design Tool, which integrates TRIZ into the eco-innovation idea. Design engineers can acquire the most feasible solution and inspiration through the proposed software. Eco-Design Tool possesses five major functions: eco-design targets search by the analytic hierarchy process technique, product evaluation, TRIZ engineering parameter recommendation reflecting eco-efficiency elements, TRIZ inventive principle exploration by the statistic technology, and TRIZ inventive principle interpretation. Successful product examples have demonstrated the applicability of Eco-Design Tool.
