The concept of 'Sustainable Development' has been around for decades and has become a part of our common usage in the media, government policy, corporate mission statements, and even in education curriculum.  However, the means of achieving the core values of Sustainable Development remains a global challenge.  Researchers and scientists advocating 'Sustainable Development' believe that one of the few ways to resolve this dilemma is through 'Sustainable Product Design and Innovation' in the manufacturing sector.'Product Design and Innovation' is the key battleground that all companies must master to remain sustainable in today's highly competitive world market.  Traditional 'Product Design and Innovation' can be viewed as a set of activities that involves more than 'Engineering Design'.  A commonly accepted definition for the process includes everything from the initial product vision, to business and marketing analysis, technical engineering design activities, manufacturing process planning, and validation.  The objective of this research is to find out how traditional 'Product Design and Product Innovation' procedure can be reorganized to incorporate Sustainable Development principles i.e., to consider "prevention" as a starting point, and moves to integrated product development that achieves reduced impacts across the whole product life cycle.  Specifically, we intend to develop an integrated framework for concept generation and evaluation in the 'Sustainable Product Design and Innovation' process.  The proposed framework is based on the integration of several engineering design and analysis methodologies including: TRIZ (a Russian acronym stands for 'Theory of the Solution of Inventive Problems', Quality Function Deployment (QFD), Rule-Based Systems, and Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA).

“可持续发展”的概念已经存在了数十年，并且已成为我们在媒体，政府政策，公司任务声明甚至教育课程中常见使用的一部分。但是，实现可持续发展的核心价值的手段仍然是全球挑战。研究人员和科学家主张“可持续发展”，认为解决这一难题的几种方法之一是通过制造业中的“可持续产品设计和创新”。“产品设计和创新”是所有公司在当今竞争激烈的世界市场中必须掌握的所有公司必须保持可持续性的关键战场。传统的“产品设计和创新”可以看作是一组不仅涉及“工程设计”的活动。该过程的一个普遍接受的定义包括从最初的产品愿景到业务和营销分析，技术工程设计活动，制造过程计划和验证的所有内容。这项研究的目的是找出如何重组传统的“产品设计和产品创新”程序，以结合可持续发展原则，即将“预防”视为起点，并转向综合产品开发，从而降低了整个产品生命周期的影响。具体而言，我们打算在“可持续产品设计与创新”过程中开发一个概念生成和评估的综合框架。拟议的框架基于几种工程设计和分析方法的整合，包括：Triz（俄罗斯首字母缩写代表“创造性问题解决方案理论”，质量功能部署（QFD），基于规则的系统和生命周期评估（LCA）。
