Abstract

The development of bicycles and motorcycles since the first patented running machine, or draisine, in 1817 is described. Bicycle modeling and control were also discussed. These models include: derivatives or simplifications of Whipple's bicycle dynamics model in which the lateral motion constraints at the road contact are nonholonomic, requiring special techniques to form correct equations of motion; and the Timoshenko-Young model in which the steer angle and speed completely determine the lateral motion of the base point of an inverted pendulum that represents the vehicle's roll dynamics
