Two-wheeled vehicles are the most commonly used means of transportation. Every day many unspoken tragedies are happening on the roads that kill the hope of many families. The primary cause of this is the inherent instability of the two-wheeled vehicle. In this paper, the precession effect of the gyroscope is used to prevent the sideway toppling of the bicycle. When the bicycle begins to tilt, the torque created by the gyroscope’s precession effect is applied to the gimbal, and the ensuing reaction moment keeps the bicycle upright. The movements of a bicycle with a gimbal placed on the bottom are measured, and a three-dimensional model with a sliding mode controller is created and simulated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
