rattleCAD is a parametric 2D computer-aided design (CAD) software specific for bicycle design, [1] [2] in particular for design bicycle frame, [3] [4] developed by the Austrian cyclist and programmer Manfred Rosenberger since 2008. [5] The application is written in the programming language Tcl using the Tk-based graphical user interface (GUI). [6]
A Jyrobike [1] (formerly known as Gyrobike [2]) is a bicycle with a special front wheel designed to make balancing easier. It was manufactured and sold by a company of the same name. The special front wheel contains a rotating flywheel driven by a rechargeable-battery-powered motor that spins at high RPMs like a gyroscope. This flywheel spins ...
Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics is the science of the motion of bicycles and motorcycles and their components, due to the forces acting on them. Dynamics falls under a branch of physics known as classical mechanics. Bike motions of interest include balancing, steering, braking, accelerating, suspension activation, and vibration. The study of ...
English: Video of a complete use session with a gyroscopic exercise tool, from 'winding up' with a shoe string until stopping the fast turning movement with the second, unused hand. In between, the man stops the hand movement and lets the rotor run for a short while without force, before making a slight movement with the holding hand to ...
Shilovsky's gyrocar in 1914, London A gyrocar is a two-wheeled automobile.The difference between a bicycle or motorcycle and a gyrocar is that in a bike, dynamic balance is provided by the rider, and in some cases by the geometry and mass distribution of the bike itself, and the gyroscopic effects from the wheels.
Some examples of the types of bikeways under the purview of bicycle transportation engineers include partially segregated infrastructure in-road such as bike lanes, buffered bike lanes; physically segregated in-road such as cycle tracks; bike paths with their own right-of-way; and shared facilities such as bicycle boulevards, shared lane ...
Photograph of a physical implementation Detail of front end. A two-mass-skate bicycle (TMS) is a theoretical model created by a team of researchers at Cornell University, University of Wisconsin-Stout, and Delft University of Technology to show that it is neither sufficient nor necessary for a bike to have gyroscopic effects or positive trail to be self-stable.
Dutch roundabout. CROW Design Manual for Bicycle Traffic is a publication on bicycle transportation planning and engineering in the Netherlands.It is published by CROW, a non-profit agency advising Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management formerly Ministry of Transport and Water Management (Netherlands).
