Mechanical Steering Compensators for High - Performance Motorcycles
This paper introduces the idea of using mechanical steering compensators to improve the dynamic behavior of high-performance motorcycles. These compensators are seen as possible replacements for a conventional steering damper and comprise networks of springs, dampers, and a less familiar component called the inerter. The inerter was recently introduced to allow the synthesis of arbitrary passiv...
متن کاملSteering in bicycles and motorcycles
Steering a motorcycle or bicycle is counterintuitive; to turn right, you must steer left initially, and vice versa. You can execute this initially counter-directed turn by turning the handlebars explicitly ~called counter-steering! or by throwing your hips to the side. Contrary to common belief, gyroscopic forces play only a limited role in balancing and steering @D. E. H. Jones, Phys. Today 23...
متن کاملSemi-Active Control Strategies for High-Performance Motorcycles
The topic of this paper is the design and analysis of a control system for a semi-active suspension in a 2-wheel vehicle. The control system is implemented via a semi-active electro-hydraulic damper located on the rear suspension of a hypersport-class motorbike. The entire design and analysis procedure is outlined: the semi-active damper is analyzed and characterized; a wide range of control st...
متن کاملHigh Performance Computational Steering of Physical Simulations
Computational steering allows researchers to monitor and manage long running, resource intensive applications at runtime. Limited research has addressed high performance computational steering. High performance in computational steering is necessary for three reasons. First, a computational steering system must act intelligently at runtime in order to minimize its perturbation of the target app...
متن کاملLightweight Mirror Structures for Mechanical Beam Steering
Defense applications ofspace-borne laser radar require a sensor that can point to a large number of targets in rapid succession and over a wide field of regard. By using a fullaperture, mechanically steered flat mirror, the requirements for high-acceleration beam steering can be met. Three alternative mirror structures were designed and their perfonnance was evaluated through computer simulatio...
