Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If element blocks are combined to create new functional blocks, then functional flexibility is improved, but the complexity of configuring element block characteristics increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefunctional flexibilityVSAvoidconfiguration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal element block structure that can serve multiple functions through configurable parameters and characteristics. Each element block is designed with standardized interfaces and modular characteristics that allow it to be adapted for different functional purposes without requiring separate custom blocks for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the configuration process into distinct layers: element block definition, characteristic assignment, and functional composition. This segmentation allows users to configure only the necessary characteristics for each functional purpose, reducing overall configuration complexity while maintaining functional flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If connection rules between element blocks are strictly enforced, then system reliability is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection validityVSAvoidconnection ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary validation and compatibility checking between element blocks before final connection is established. The system pre-assesses whether connections are valid based on defined rules, providing early feedback to users about connection feasibility, thus maintaining reliability while simplifying the user's connection process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms that inform users about connection validity in real-time. When users attempt to connect element blocks, the system immediately provides feedback on whether the connection is valid according to enforced rules, guiding users toward correct connections without requiring them to remember or understand complex connection constraints.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Stability of the object's composition

If parameter input ranges are predetermined, then system stability is improved, but adaptability to real-world values deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem stabilityVSAvoidparameter adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic parameter ranges that can adapt based on the specific element block type, context, and configured characteristics. Rather than fixed predetermined ranges, the system dynamically determines appropriate input ranges based on the element block's functional requirements and current configuration state, allowing both stability through constraints and adaptability through flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent allows parameter ranges and validation rules to change based on the element block configuration. As elements are added or modified, the system dynamically adjusts the acceptable parameter ranges to reflect real-world conditions while maintaining system stability through contextual constraints.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

4Device complexity

If only final results are reported, then output simplicity is improved, but diagnostic capability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoutput simplicityVSAvoidproblem detection capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the output reporting into multiple levels: final results, intermediate results, and detailed diagnostic information. Users can select which level of detail to display based on their needs, maintaining simplicity for general use while providing comprehensive diagnostic capability when problems need to be detected and analyzed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements multi-level feedback reporting that provides not only final results but also intermediate results and diagnostic information about the simulation process. This feedback structure enables users to trace through the simulation steps and identify where problems occur without requiring complex output processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
