Cycling contributes to the society by reducing fuel consumption, traffic congestion, and air and noise pollution. In recent days, cycling has been promoted as more emphasis is given to non-motorized mobility. To attract people towards cycling, safe and comfortable bikeways are needed.

Furthermore, the burden of lifetime illness is compressed into a shorter period before the time of a person's death, a statement known as compression of morbidity. As a result, people are capable of being more and more active for longer periods and older ages. Considering as well, the fact that most jobs currently, and most likely in the future, involve a lot of office work sitting still, the need for daily exercise becomes critical in many aspects, especially at older ages. Biking can bring these facts together since it can be easily integrated into everyday living as transportation mean. At older ages though, conventional bicycles can present usage requirements and side effects that will prevent people from using them.

Karlekar Department Head Prof. '"egible Signature Prof. Ray C. Johnson DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY ROCHESTER, NHJ YORK August 1983 A CONSTANT FORCE BICYCLE TRANSMISSION ABSTRACT A prototype design for a human powered automatic transmission intended for use on an ordinary touring bicycle is presented. The transmission is intended to automatically adjust the gearing of the bicycle to maintain an optimum pedal force, regardless of the current riding conditions. Therefore, the transmission eliminates the need for the cyclist to manually adjust the bicycle gearing. The entire transmission is a self-contained unit designed to bolt onto the rear wheel of an otherwise unmodified 27-inch bicycle. The transmission combines a unique adaptation of a commercially popular continuously variable traction drive with a totally mechanical integral feedback controller. The features of the traction drive unique to its application to a bicycle are outlined in detail, along with an analysis of the important traction drive design parameters.

Vol. 2(1), 11-24 REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access Pedal force effectiveness in Cycling: a review of constraints and training effects Rodrigo R Bini1, 2, Patria Hume1, James Croft3, Andrew Kilding1 Abstract Pedal force effectiveness in cycling is usually measured by the ratio of force perpendicular to the crank (effective force) and total force applied to the pedal (resultant force). Most studies measuring pedal forces have been restricted to one leg but a few studies have reported bilateral asymmetry in pedal forces. Pedal force effectiveness is increased at higher power output and reduced at higher pedaling cadences. Changes in saddle position resulted in unclear effects in pedal force effectiveness, while lowering the upper body reduced pedal force effectiveness. Cycling experience and fatigue had unclear effects on pedal force effectiveness. Augmented feedback of pedal forces can improve pedal force effectiveness within a training session and after multiple sessions for cyclists and non-cyclists.

  • PEDAL POWERED.Indd
    Portable Pedal Power A proposal for AAA and Burt Rutan March 1, 2005 Submitted by CASL and the EDC Outline of Portable Pedal Power Proposal: Why we need it How our Proposal Meets the Proposal Requirements Multidisciplinary Collaboration: the Submitting Group Design Guidelines Design Sketches Initial Electrical Schematic Proposed Budget Additional Information from research: Basic Pedal Power Study Available Products Organizations Precedent Studies Glossary Portable Pedal Power Proposal Abstract: Living in America in the 21st Century is a luxury that is generally taken for granted. It wasnʼt long ago that people lived in small houses without flush toilets, running water, or electricity, and now people donʼt even recognize the great ingenuity that is required to bring electricity in to our lives. Our proposal seeks to raise hands on awareness of electricity production, while demonstrating alternatives to the current standard in an exciting and engaging way. It is important to visualize new ways to bring power to the people as population continues to grow and power shortages continue to occur. Much of the power that is provided to people today is done in very un-sus- tainable ways; new ideas are needed to transition in to a post cheap-petroleum era. Proposal: We propose to design and create a portable bicycle trailor that generates electricity for events and dem- onstrations. The trailor will be fully equipped with bicycle stands that fold out to handle 3-4 bicycles. Each stand would be connected to a small magnet motor generator that would transform the bicycle pedal rotations in to electrical energy. The energy then charges a small battery bank.

    ISSN: 2277-9655 [Vairakanna* et al., 6(4): April, 2017] Impact Factor: 4.116 IC™ Value: 3.00 CODEN: IJESS7 IJESRT INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES & RESEARCH TECHNOLOGY DESIGN AND MATERIAL STUDY OF RACE BIKE CRANK PL. Vairakanna*, M. Chandran * PG Scholar, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Dr. MGR University, Chennai, India Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Dr. MGR University, Chennai, India DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.496091 ABSTRACT In this study we are going to study on design and material optimization of a race bike crank. The objective is to compare the stresses and weight saving of alternate crank material with existing steel crank. Increasing strength while decreasing or maintaining weight of the products is getting to be highly important research issue in this modern world. On design study compare alternative designs of crank for effective weight reductions. The best optimized design and material will be suggested. The material will be selected with objective of increasing strength to weight ratio. KEYWORDS: Bicycle crank, Crank Material, Crank Design Profile. INTRODUCTION Cranks The two cranks, one on each side and usually mounted 180 degree apart, connect the bottom bracket axle to the pedals. Bicycle cranks can vary in length to accommodate different sized riders and different types of cycling. Crank length can be measured from the center of the pedal spindle to the center of the bottom bracket spindle or axle. The larger bicycle component manufacturers typically offers crank lengths for adult riders from 165mm to 180mm in 2.5mm increments, with 170mm cranks being the most common size. The factor affecting the selection of crank length is the rider’s cycling specialty and the type of cycling event.
