Synthesis of human-bike kinematic structures for direct kinematic analysis

Handke A., Bałchanowski J.
pages 289 - 292, full text

The work concerns the analysis of possible kinematic structures of a human lower limbs set in combination with a bicycle. The selection of the appropriate kinematic structure was carried out in a manner allowing to perform numerical studies on the created man-bicycle model. The research was aimed at the elimination of passive constraints present in common models intended for kinematics and dynamics studies of the drive transfer from human lower limbs to the bicycle crank. Selected models have been used to obtain information on the driving moments in the hip and knee joints, as well as the loads from the reaction forces. Selected parameters were obtained by inverse kinematics based on displacement characteristics in individual joints. The research was carried out in an environment designed for dynamic simulation studies of multibody systems.
