Contribution of the formulation of the links between Invention - Optimization in Inventive conceptual design. (Contribution à la formalisation des liens invention-optimisation en conception inventive)

One of the most striking characteristics of inventive design is that evaluating solutions may prove to be more difficult than finding them. Having good ideas is useless if they are rejected at an early stage. In many existing qualitative evaluation and selection methods (see design model), evaluation criteria are usually taken from the design requirement, which is strongly influenced by customer preferences or decision makers’ experience. In order to leverage inventiveness of a company through additional chances of feasible concepts. This thesis presents approaches and support tools to evaluate and select Solution Concepts obtained from Inventive Design Method (IDM) framework. The contributions in this thesis can be used as a decision-making aid and tool.
