The safety of electrically assisted bicycles compared to classic bicycles
Accident Analysis & Prevention, 2014Use of electrically assisted bicycles with a maximum speed of 25 km/h is rapidly increasing. This growth has been particularly rapid in the Netherlands, yet very little research has been conducted to assess the road safety implications. This case-control study compares the likelihood of crashes for which treatment at an emergency department is needed ...

2015 Systems and Information Engineering Design Symposium, 2015
In the past decade there has been a substantial growth in numbers of commuters who are bicycling to and from work. Despite this fact, the most popular method of transportation in present-day society is the use of automobiles. One possible explanation for the fact that most commuters prefer automobiles to bicycles is that automobiles provide a level of ...

The Electrically Assisted Bicycle
American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 2012The aim of this study was to analyze the physiologic demand of pedaling on an electrically assisted bicycle to test its potential as an alternative method to perform exercise.Twenty participants (ten trained vs. ten untrained in endurance) novice in the electrically assisted bicycle performed the same cycling protocol composed of nine 5-min submaximal ...

Comparison Study on Operating Speeds of Electric Bicycles and Bicycles
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2008Electric bicycles, or e-bicycles, and bicycles share the nonmotorized lanes along both sides of avenues in many Chinese cities. With the help of an electromotor, the former usually have a higher dynamic performance than the latter; hence their operating speeds are quite different.

Battery powered electric bicycles and scooters, replacing the heavily polluting scooters with two-cycle internal combustion engines, provide zero-emission transportation for many parts of the world. Annual global sales of electric bicycles have risen from 36,000 in 1993 to over 500,000 in 1999 and to multi-millions today.

Rising of Electric Bicycle in China
Journal of Iron and Steel Research, International, 2006Abstract Electric bicycle (EB) appeared in south China since 1997. Within a few years its popularization is just as a storm passing through most China. Electric bicycle (EB) — to install a permanent magnet motor (36 V/180 W) in the wheel center of bicycle and to add a rechargeable battery, electron monitor, with total weight ≤40 kg, speed ≤20 km/h ...

Performance evaluation of electric bicycles
Fourtieth IAS Annual Meeting. Conference Record of the 2005 Industry Applications Conference, 2005., 2005Electric motor powered bicycles (short: "electric bicycles") have been making their way into the U.S. market for about two decades. Such electric bicycles can be used for a large variety of purposes. This paper gives a systematic, comprehensive, theoretically and experimentally based characterization of electric bicycles, and reports on the different ...
