{{Short description|Exploration of possible solutions}}
{{ '''Morphological analysis''' or '''general morphological analysis''' is a method for exploring possible solutions to a multi-dimensional, non-quantified complex problem. It was developed by Swiss astronomer [[Fritz Zwicky]].<ref name = "GMA">Ritchey, T. (1998).
