Samenvatting
The particular development reported in this paper started with an analysis of the rider by using correlation techniques. The authors showed that the rider could be described by a proportional-integral-differential controller with a time delay. Later on a on-line parameter estimation method was used to adjust the parameters of the mathematical description of the rider. The goals of the work summarised here were: a. How accurately can a rider stabilising a bicycle be described by a simple linear model plus a remnant? b. How variable is the model for a given subject with respect to his behaviour at different times? c. How valid is the model for a randomly chosen group of subjects?
