...This baseline space included only solution types from a universe of 583 ideas generated by participants who either had or had not received patent examples, including ideas from participants in a previous ideation study using the same design problem [66]....

...The space was defined by using functional decomposition to create a set of possible subfunctions of solutions to the design problem, based on the methodology and consistent with those used in our previous design by analogy study [66] informed by the function and flow basis of Hirtz et al....

...These “best” concepts were then evaluated using a detailed quality analysis, similar to that which was used in our previous design by analogy work [66]....

...The original set of subfunctions was the same as that used in the previous study [66]....

...For consistency and comparability, these metrics are the same as those used in our previous work with design by analogy with minor modifications noted below [66]....

...There is also strong support for the idea that designers should be exposed to ideas that are an appropriate ‘distance’ from the design domain that is otherwise being considered (Chan et al., 2011; Fu et al., 2013; Gonçalves, Cardoso, & Badke-Schaub, 2013; Tseng et al., 2008)....

...This sort of transfer is greater in distance than typically seen in the analogy literature, where far-field analogies in problem solving are usually from cases in other domains that are surface dissimilar but still solve the same basic problem [20,45]....
