Save your career with Balanced Mastery--learn how to balance life AND achieve goals. To this end, consider bicycling to smooth stress and spark creativity, learn what a Rolestorming focus group found when asked how to reduce cycling fatalities. High achievers protect and nourish the body and the mind. When you choose cycling, be aware of the "Ghostbike Paradox" (rolestorm.com/articles). Learn how motorists think and why they're not out to get you. Motorists and cyclists: here's what's really going on when you hit the road and why riding might be less dangerous than you think. https://lnkd.in/gwZhggH6

📣 I'm pleased to announce the publication of our peer-reviewed paper entitled "Development of a Hardware-in-the-Loop Test Bench for Validation of an Anti-lock Braking System on an E-Bike" co-authored with Nicolas Ramosaj and Christian Fusco following the Bicycle and Motorcycle Dynamics conference held at Delft University of Technology in October 2023. 🚲 Safe cycling is first and foremost a question of infrastructure 🚧 and behavior 👀, but technology 👨🔧 can also contribute, if deployed wisely. In our article, we look at how ABS can make bicycle braking safer. ⚙ More specifically, we propose a so-called hardware-in-the-loop approach to interface a real ABS with a virtual bike, and thus validate the correct operation of the ABS in a safe and reproducible way before embarking on road tests. ✔To prove that our virtual bike behaves realistically, we compared it with measurements made on the road with an instrumented bike. We also made specific measurements to characterize certain components, such as the telescopic fork or the radial behavior of the tire. Open access paper available here: https://lnkd.in/eHx_SP7A

Right now, many people have little or no access to protected cycling infrastructure at all, limiting their ability to get around. More protected bike lanes can increase the number of destinations that can be reached by bicycle, and will increase the number of cycle trips taken. But where to build them? Is it better to maximize the number of connected destinations, or is it more important to focus on maximizing the number of people who can benefit from access to the network? In other words, how to find out where people need and/or want to cycle? A team of researchers from University of Toronto’s Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering are harnessing machine learning to find out where cycling infrastructure should be located in order to benefit the most people.

🚲 Research for safe road traffic Ngoc Chi Banh (A05) and Prof. Dr. Ingrid Scharlau have recently co-authered an article entitled "Safety Assistance Systems for Bicyclists: Toward Empirical Studies of the Dooring Problem". In this article, the authors develop advanced assistance systems for cyclists in order to achieve the goal of zero road deaths per year. Their research focuses on the dooring problem - when car doors are opened carelessly and endanger cyclists. By extending a virtual cycling environment with V2X (vehicle-to-everything) communication, they show how this technology can help prevent such accidents and increase road safety. Find our more abou the article:

Hot off the press! The first empirical paper from my PhD fieldwork is now available for your reading pleasure. https://lnkd.in/g2XwKJ5p The paper begins by highlighting the current challenges with urban cycling: "Most people perceive using a bicycle on streets with mixed traffic as dangerous and stressful. The vast majority of spaces available ride a bicycle in cities are shared with fast moving vehicles thereby actively discouraging bicycle use as an everyday form of transportation. This discouragement contributes to individual decisions to not ride a bicycle." And then concludes that AVs are not a 'silver bullet' technology to resolve these challenges: "The results of this study suggest that the rollout of AVs will not reduce traffic stress to a tipping point where less confident bicycle users will feel safe enough to ride in a future with AVs. Some of the biggest factors that present attitudinal barriers to bicycle users’ mobility with AVs are similar to factors that already stifle bicycle use with conventional vehicles." More to come!

Curb-cut effect in practice For my Amsterdam cyclists...How annoying is it to have to stop and get off your bike for a large curb when there isn't a curb-cut in sight? Interesting use cases where designing to make something more accessible improves the experience for so many more people than originally thought "What began as a solution for wheelchair users quickly transcended its original purpose, benefiting a wide range of individuals, including parents with strollers, people with trolleys, and scooter users." https://lnkd.in/guF8HhGB

AAT (Absolute Altitude Technology) in The One bike computer from Absolute Cycling is a gamechanger for those that want accurate data. That's not just a wild claim: the data speaks for itself. By continually cross referencing gnss, speed, incline, accelerometer and barometer datasets through a process we call Sensor Fusion, the One gives consistent, accurate incline data. On screen data is meticulously measured; not extrapolated from just one or 2 metrics. Gone is the altitude and incline error we're used to seeing on our head units. The accuracy benefits of this data quality goes beyond just the ride; evident through the consistent cumulative climbing numbers that you see from individual ride to ride. Today's proving ground was Gironas epic Els Angels climb - now paved with a heavenly new tarmac surface!

EA thought of the day... Capability is a way to look at the world. If you have a bicycle, you need to be able to ride and maintain it. But those aren’t Capabilities. Why did you buy the bicycle? The answer to that question is where you’ll find the Capabilities of a bicycle. #EnterpriseArchitecture
