This research uses an ordered-response model to evaluate the factors that impact bicycle frequency use for an individual’s commute to and from work. The data used for this paper were gathered during an original survey effort conducted over the Internet in 2002. The paper presents empirical results and discusses the policy implications of these results for urban planning. In addition, the paper ...

introduction penetration of a bicycle brake handle into the orbit is a rare and serious type of trauma. globe subluxation due to such trauma has not been previously reported. case presentation a 10-year-old girl presented after falling from a bicycle, which resulted in the handbrake penetrating her right upper eyelid. on examination, the globe was subluxated anteriorly, there was no light perce...

An interactive bicycle simulator with six degrees of freedom motion system could bring the rider a very realistic riding feeling. An important component of the simulator is the full bicycle dynamic model that simulated the two-wheeled bicycle dynamics. It consists of two slightly coupled submodels: The stability submodel and the vibration submodel. The stability submodel solves the stability of...

Autonomous robots in unstructured and dynamically changing retail environments have to master complex perception, knowledge processing, and manipulation tasks. To enable them to act competently, we propose a framework based on three core components: (◦) a knowledge-enabled perception system, capable of combining diverse information sources to cope with occlusions and stacked objects with a vari...
