by Jason Moore The preliminary results for identification of the model for a series of runs. I’m working on the bicycle model identification mentioned that I started on in a previous post. My plan is to work on identifying a simple fourth order model as was shown but for a series of runs … Continue reading
by Andrew Kickertz Video clips of sphere-cylinder collision detection algorithm In effort to step up my ball-pin collision simulation from 2D circles to realistic 3D bodies, I have been working on collision detection algorithms for spheres and cylinders. The fruits of this week’s labor are summarized in the following videos:

by Jason Moore We wrote a paper for the IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part A: Systems and Humans about the manually controlled bicycle. It’s finally available. Our paper is available as early access on IEEE Explore: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TSMCA.2011.2164244 The software used to do the analysis and extra information is available … Continue reading
by Kenneth Lyons A first update on what I’ve been working on this quarter as a part of EME 199. Hey everyone, my name is Kenny and I’m taking some EME 199 units this quarter. As part of that, I’m working with Luke on his project and this is … Continue reading
by Jason Moore Some accuracy checks for my steer torque measurements. I’ve been checking over the accuracy of my steer torque measurements in detail to make sure that the measurement error is low. If my measurements are poor, then the hope of validating a bicycle model with the data may be impossible. … Continue reading
by Jason Moore I looked into how the identified controller parameters varied among two rider for several runs at the same speed. Here I examine 26 runs at the average speed of 5.0 +/- 0.2 m/s with three different riders. The assumptions are as follows: I use the Whipple model linear about … Continue reading
by Jason Moore A look at the validity of the Whipple model with respect to the data we’ve collected. Contents Update – January 22, 2012 Update – January 23, 2012 Our current human controller identification hinges on the assumption that the Whipple model is a valid model of the bicycle/rider … Continue reading
by Jason Moore I’ve been making steady progress on the system identification of our experiments and this is one of the better fits. This example is for run # 700. Luke is the rider @ 5.1657 m/s for a line tracking with disturbance run on the pavilion floor. There are … Continue reading
