This paper presents key technologies and system integration issues of the KAIST interactive bicycle simulator. The rider on the bicycle feels the motion and has the visual experience as if he/she is riding in the campus of the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. The simulator consists of a bicycle, a Stewart platform, a Magneto-Rheological handle and a pedal resistance system to...

The bicycle sharing systems are increasingly numerous nowadays. These transportation systems generate sizable transportation data the mining of which can reveal the underlying urban phenomenons linked to city dynamics. This paper introduces a statistical model to automatically analyze bike sharing system trips data. This model will introduce a latent variable to partition the stations in terms ...

OBJECTIVES To describe the incidence, type, and severity of injuries related to the use of bicycle-towed trailers for transporting children and to compare them with injuries associated with the use of child seats mounted on adult bicycles. DESIGN A retrospective analysis of data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System of the US Consumer Product Safety Commission for 1990 to 19...

Product-service system (PSS) complexity is rapidly increasing in order to meet complex user requirements. Increased leads PSSs failing sustainability requirements their initial design. To enhance PSS and support social benefits, this paper proposes a sustainable development framework based on design-centric (DCC) theory. In the early design stage of PSS, DCC theory used analyze system. Determin...

BACKGROUND The present study aims to increase bicycling and level of physical activity (PA), and thereby promote health in parents of toddlers, by giving access to different bicycle types. There is a need for greater understanding of e-bikes and their role in the transportation network, and further effects on PA levels and health. Moreover, longtail bikes could meet certain practical needs not ...
