Analysis of stability differences in road and time trial bicycles with instantaneous and delayed control

Journal Article Sports Engineering · June 1, 2015 Bicycle stability has been of interest to dynamicists and athletes since before J. W. Whipple described the canonical model for bicycle motion in 1899. Since then, the subject has fascinated many who sought to find a simple way to describe the essence of s ... Full text Cite

Dynamics of an eccentric disk on a curved surface

Journal Article Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena · January 1, 2014 This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of an eccentric disk rolling on a curve of arbitrary shape and then on a curve defined as a cubic function. Comparisons are made to a disk without eccentricity and the related point mass approximation. The curve ... Full text Cite

Cycling aerodynamics: The effect of rider position on aerodynamic drag

Journal Article ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition, Proceedings (IMECE) · January 1, 2013 Competitive cyclists seek to maximize their efficiency by minimizing the influence of resistive forces. At the high speeds maintained during competition, aerodynamic drag is the primary resistive force. This paper investigates the influence of a cyclist's ... Full text Cite

On the comparison of semi-analytical methods for the stability analysis of delay differential equations

Journal Article Journal of Sound and Vibration · August 13, 2012 This paper provides the first comparison of the semi-discretization, spectral element, and Legendre collocation methods. Each method is a technique for solving delay differential equations (DDEs) as well as determining regions of stability in the DDE param ... Full text Cite
