碩士 === 東海大學 === 工業設計學系 === 94 === Abstract Before a solution can be found for a specific problem, the problem has to be analyzed to determine what the root cause of the problem is. This analysis would result in focusing on a correct solution for the real problem. In my past experience, I have found lots of simple problems have not been solved due to the wrong solution. People tend to hurry to get to a solution without knowing the true nature of what the problem is. So, I invented a process called, Object Effects Analysis, OEA to use in this thesis. I used OEA to break down the problem of process and to understand how each part of the process affects the other. This can then result in focusing on a solution or solutions. OEA is a tool that was derived from the concepts of Job Safety Analysis, JSA. The main purpose of OEA is to analyze the process for the problem. This analysis is used especially for problems that reoccur repeatedly. This method breaks down the process into individual steps, this being the initiative object and passive object. It is then possible to understand the effects of these objects to each other during the action step. It is then easier to understand the root cause of the problem by using OEA to analyze the effects of the objects during process. Then we use Advanced Systematic Inventive Thinking, ASIT tool to devise a good solution. Like most production lines, the manufacture of glass in a production line depends on an operation process consisting of steps repeated within standard operation procedures. If something goes wrong during production, then this break in the cycle of production is caused by some action. I have found that use of OEA in production line problems has helped to analyze what the problem is and what has caused the problem (effects of the object). Normally the root cause of the problem is from the object or the process and the correct solution is to change the object or the process.
