Abstract

Model built for the bicycle, road and the driver and contact established between them is the core technological issue for the study of frame’s deformation and driver’s injury on the electric bike accidents. A rigid model of bicycle, road and obstacle is built by using ADAMS software, and the driver is as Hybrid Ⅲ body collision model by LifeMOD software. Contact between them is established, especially on the driver’s chest to handlebar. Base on the rigid-body collision theory, the collision point of head and the speed of the chest were compared with different speed in the range of 15-35km/h. The simulation results shows that the impact between the rider’s chest and handlebar is the main reason to the difference of rider’s dynamic behave. Simulation results verify the validity of this model and lays fundamentals for the study of driver injury in electric bicycle accidents.
