متن کاملDownhill Motion of the Skater-Skateboard System
The lateral instabilities of vehicles are well-known phenomena, see for example, the shimmy motions of bikes, motorbikes or the steered wheels of cars. Another interesting phenomenon is the snaking motion of the skateboard-skater system that is analyzed in this study. A mechanical model of the downhill skateboarding is constructed in order to consider the effect of the slope angle on the stabil...
متن کاملOn Kinematic Mechanism of a Two-Wheel Skateboard: The Essboard
In this paper, we investigate the kinematic mechanism and path planning of a two-caster nonholonomic vehicle (the Essboard) which is a recent variant of skateboards. Different from the most studied Snakeboard, the Essboard consists of a torsion bar and two platforms, each of which contains a pedal and a caster. We study the relationship between the tilt angle of the pedal and the wheel directio...
