Abstract:
Control and balancing of an inverted pendulum has gained a lot of attention over the past few decades due to its unstable properties. This has become a great challenge for control engineers to verify and test the control theory. To control and balance an inverted pendulum, proportional integrated derivative (PID) method or linear quadratic regulator (LQR) method can be used through which a lot of simulations can be done using the represented theories.Since urban population is increasing at a very alarming rate, there is a need to discover new ways of transportation to meet the future challenges and demands. Scania has come up with a new conceptual bus called NXT which aims to develop a modular vehicle that should configure and re-configure themselves between different transportation tasks. NXT vehicle has front and rear drive modules which can be represented as single axle, two-wheeled vehicles which in-turn can be viewed as an inverted pendulum with a huge Center of Gravity. Controlling and balancing of the pod or drive module precisely and accurately is an interesting challenge since it is an unstable inverted pendulum with huge center of gravity (COG). This behaviour of the system has created a research question whether the module is controllable or not.Therefore this thesis focuses on the possibility of controlling the pod which is a two-wheeled inverted pendulum vehicle with a COG offset. Also, the thesis focuses on the construction, mod-elling, testing and validation of a down-scaled model, what sensors are needed to balance the pod precisely, how the sensors must be integrated with the system and how the pod can be controlled remotely from a certain distance by a human. The developed pod houses the technologies like sensors, BLDC motor controllers, hoverboard, Arduino board and Bluetooth transmitters.The Master Thesis starts by presenting an introduction to the inverted pendulum theories, Scania NXT project, information about the research methods, thesis outline and structure . It continues by describing related literature about the inverted pendulums, segways, hoverboards, motor controllers and Arduino boards. Afterwards, the process of deriving a mathematical model, together with simulation in Matlab, Simulink and Simscape is described. Later, construction of the pod is made and lot of effort is put to run the pod. Since the pod needs to be controlled remotely by a human, a remote controlled systemis implemented via mobile phone using an app and finally the thesis is finished with a conclusion and ideas for future work.<br>Reglering och balancering av en inverterad pendel har väckt stor uppmärksamhet över de senaste decennierna på grund av dess instabila egenskaper. Det har skapat stora utmaningar för regleringenjörer eftersom området tillåter test och verifikation av diverese lösningar. För reglering och balansering av en inverterad pendel, så kan en regulator med proportionell, integral och derivat (PID) konstanter eller en linjär kvadratisk regulator (LQR) användas tillsammans med simuleringar för att bekräfta teorin.I och med att stadsbefolkningen ökar i mycket hög takt, så uppstår behovet av att uppfinna nya transportmedel för att lösa framtida utmaningar och krav. Scania har tagit fram en ny konceptbuss som heter NXT, med målet att utveckla ett modulfordon som kommer att konfigurera och rekonfigurera sig själva mellan olika transportuppgifter. NXT-fordonet har fram- och bakdriv-moduler som kan representeras som enaxlade tvåhjuliga fordon, vilka i sin tur kan betraktas som en inverterad pendel med en stor massa. Att reglera och balansera drivmodulen på ett noggrant sätt är en utmaning eftersom det är ett mycket instabilt system med enorm massa och en okänd tyngdpunkt. Systemets beteende har skapat en forskningsfråga om modulen är reglerbar eller inte.Denna uppsats fokuserar därmed på möjligheterna att kunna reglera drivmodulen samt vilka begränsningar det finns. Uppsatsen fokuserar också på konstruktion, modellering, testning och validering av en nedskalad modell, vilka sensorer som krävs för att balansera drivmodulem, samt hur sensorerna måste integreras med systemet för att kunna fjärstyra fordonet från ett visst avstånd. Utveckingen av en sådan nedskalad modell berör olika områden såsom sensorer, BLDC-motorstyrenheter, hoverboard balanserings scootrar, Arduino kretskort och Bluetooth-sändare/mottagare.Uppsasten börjar med en introduction om olika inverterade pendel teorier, Scania NXT project, forskningsmetoder, en översikt och övergripande struktur. Vidare fortsätter beskrivining av relaterade litteratur om inverterade pendel, Segway, hoverboard, borstlösa motor styrenheter och Arduino kretskort. Senare fortsätter processen för att härleda matematiska modeller som beskirver systemet, tillsammans med simuleringar i Matlab, Simulink och Simscape. Därefter beskrivs konstruktionen av en nedskalad modell av drivmodulen och beskrivning av nödvändiga processer för att få hårdvara och mjkukvara att fungera ihop. Då fordonen ska ha möjlighet att fjärrstyras, så implementerades en bluetooth enhet tillsammans med en programmerbar mobil applikation. Slutligen avlutas uppsatsen med resultat, slutsats och diskussioner och förslag till framtida arbeten.

Abstract:
This project has investigated how to reshape two-wheel mobility in a more functional driven way, without losing the thrill of riding a motorcycle. The intitial cue was offered by the current rise of electric powertrains in the market. The opportunity of finding new spaces in the existing motorcycle architecture that could increase it's functionality and safety served as inspiration for this project. By achieving these steps this project wishes to envision a product that can attract new audiences whilst making two-wheel mobility more accessible. The process involved a variety of techniques that range from concept creation to 3D visualisation. During the ideation phase digital and analogue sketching techniques were combined after benchmarking existing products and visualising through animations possible solutions. In a later step the design was refined using digital painting in addition to polygon modelling. It has been helpful to evaluate the product in VR through various steps of the process, this provided a better understanding of the volumes and enabled a more accurate design of certain components. The result of the project is Flux. Combining unusual materials, like silicone, with a new layout offered the possibility of creating a simple yet advanced solution that provides various benefits to riding in everyday life. These benefits range from an enhanced cargo capability to an easier way to swap or recharge the batteries. In addition, it features some seamlessly integrated technology improvements that are vowed to make riding safer, without compromising on the experience.

Because the robot could not be balanced based on a control system derived from the original analytical model, additional system dynamics in the form of frictional losses in the motors were incorporated. A SISO PID compensator and a SISO lead-lag compensator were designed to balance the robot based on the new model; both showed acceptable system responses but were subject to high-frequency oscillation. A SISO state feedback controller was also designed, and it was successful in creating stability in simulation and removing the high-frequency oscillation effects. The robot was rebuilt using new parts that better represented its ideal model, and software was created using National Instruments LabVIEW to control the robot.<br>by Maia R. Bageant.<br>S.B.

Abstract:
Due to a need of more compact bogies, the brake discs can be mounted on the railway wheels, bolted through the wheel web. Thus, the wheels are drilled and have multiple areas of contact with the brake discs. To establish maintenance procedures that will be applied to the  wheels,  SNCF  used  the  feedback  from  experience  (as  with  the  train  AGC)  which  gives  perfect  performance  in  terms  of  safety.  However,  to  optimize  the  maintenance  process, numerical  simulations  may  be  preferred  since  they  are  less  conservative.  This  report  describes  the  numerical  simulations,  based  on  the  finite  element  method,  that  were conducted to determine if the Régiolis wheel complies with the standard EN 13979-­‐1 from a mechanical  fatigue  point  of  view.  In  addition,  it  provides  additional  insights  regarding  the  loads and damage suffered by the wheel, which are not taken into account in the standard: the  damage  induced  by  disc  braking  and  the  fretting  that  may  occur  at  the  contact  interfaces. This study has been used as a decision support for the first inspection intervals of the Régiolis wheels.

Abstract:
A two-wheeled, single-axle, differentially driven vehicle possesses many salient advantages when compared to traditional vehicle designs. In particular, high traction factor, zero turn radius, and inherent static and dynamic stability are characteristics of this configuration. Drive torque is provided via a swinging reaction mass hanging below the axle. While mechanically simple, the resulting nonlinear vehicle dynamics can be quite complex. Additional design challenges arise if non-pendulating platforms or hardware mounts are required. Ultimately, this vehicle class has great potential in autonomous robotic applications such as mine clearance, planetary exploration, and autonomous remote inspection. This thesis discusses the kinematic and dynamic analyses of this vehicle class and develops design tools including performance envelopes and control strategies. Further, it confronts the stable platform problem and provides one solution while suggesting alternative design concepts for other applications.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
Denna rapport beskriver och förklarar processen för att utforma och konstruera en parallell tvåhjulig robot, lik en Segway, med syfte att tävla mot andra liknande konstruktioner i en tävling. Roboten är konstruerad kring den inverterade pendelns princip och eftersom den är instabil har den aktivt balanserats. En accelerometer och ett gyro har tillsammans med ett Kalmanfiler använts för att bestämma robotens vinkel mot tyngdaccelerationen. När tyngdpunkten flyttas, ger det återkopplade systemet en rörelse i motsatt riktning för att säkerställa balansen. Små korrigeringar är alltid nödvändiga för en stabil position, och dessa har implementerats i en PID-regulator. Flera delsystem har utvecklats och integrerats för att tillgodose behoven för att kunna medverka i tävlingen, såsom en mållinjesensor, ett vapensystem, ett par kodgivare, en set med utfällbara ben, en fjärrkontroll och en text-till-tal-modul. Alla delsystem förutom de utfällbara benen integrerades i den slutliga prototypen. Vid rapportens sammanställande kvarstod endast tävlingsmomentet.<br>This paper presents and explains the process of designing and constructing a parallel two wheeled balancing robot, much like a Segway, with the purpose of competing against other similar designs in a race. The robot is designed around the principal of an inverse pendulum, and because it is always unstable it has to be actively balanced to be able to stand up. An accelerometer and a gyro together with a Kalman filter are used to determine the angle of the robot. When the center of mass starts to tip over, the feedback system moves the robot in the same direction to keep its balance. Small corrections are always needed to be able to stand straight, which has been implemented in the form of a PID-controller. Several subsystems have also been developed or integrated to accommodate the needs to successfully participate in the race, such as a finish line sensor, a weapon system, a pair of encoders, a set of unfolding legs, a remote controller and a text-to-speech module. All subsystems except the unfolding legs were successfully integrated into the finished prototype, but upon completion of this report the finished robot has yet to participate in the competition.

Abstract:
Les conducteurs des véhicules deux roues motorisés sont considérés parmi les usagers de la route les plus vulnérables, comme en témoigne le nombre d'accidents, en augmentation chaque année. Le nombre important des décès relatifs aux véhicules seuls « sans tiers identifié » est lié à la perte de contrôle dans les virages. Ces travaux de thèse reposent sur une plate-forme moto instrumentée avec un système multi-capteurs. Nous avons proposé des algorithmiques pour reconstruire avec précision les trajectoires des motos lors de la négociation des virages. Ce système est destiné à évaluer et examiner de manière objective le comportement des conducteurs lors de prise de virages afin de mieux les former. L’objectif est de les amener à adopter une trajectoire de sécurité pour améliorer la sécurité routière. Les données nécessaires à la reconstruction de trajectoire sont acquises à l’aide d’une moto instrumentée embarquant plusieurs capteurs redondants (capteurs de référence et capteurs à faible coût) qui mesurent les actions du conducteur (roulis, direction) et le comportement de la moto (position, vitesse, accélération, odométrie, cap et attitude). Ce travail s’inscrit dans le cadre d’un projet ANR VIROLO ++. La solution que nous avons proposé a permis de reconstruire les trajectoires des motos dans les virages avec une précision acceptable. L'algorithme développé sera utilisé afin d'évaluer et examiner de manière objective la manière dont les conducteurs négocient les virages. Le système embarqué portant cet algorithme peut être utilisé pour la formation initiale et l’entraînement afin de mieux former les conducteurs de motos à estimer une trajectoire sûre et à assurer ainsi une sécurité lors de la prise de virages<br>The drivers of Powered Two Wheels vehicles are considered among the most vulnerable road users, as attested by the number of crashes increasing every year. The significant part of mortalities related to single vehicle “without identifying a third party” is related to the loss of control in bends. These thesis work is based on an instrumented motorcycle platform with a multi-sensor system. We have proposed algorithms to accurately reconstruct motorcycle trajectories achieved when negotiating bends. This system is intended to objectively evaluate and examine the behavior of drivers when negotiating bends in order to better train them. The goal is to lead them to adopt a safe trajectory in order to improve the road safety. Data required for the trajectory reconstruction are acquired using an instrumented motorcycle embedding several redundant sensors (reference sensors and low-cost sensors) that measure the rider’s actions (roll, steering) and the motorcycle behavior (position, velocity, acceleration, odometry, heading and attitude). This work is a part of the ARN project VIROLO++. The solution we have proposed allows to reconstruct bikes trajectories in bends with acceptable accuracy. The developed algorithm will be used to objectively evaluate and examine how riders negotiate bends. The embedded system carrying this algorithm can be used for the initial training and retraining in order to better train motorcycle drivers to estimate a safe trajectory and thus ensure safety when taking bends

Abstract:
There is a need for smaller and more economic transportation systems. Two-wheeled inverted-pendulum machines, such as the Segway, have been proposed to address this need. However, the Segway places the operator on top of a naturally unstable platform that is stabilized by means of a control system. The control stability of the Segway can be severely affected when minor disturbances or unanticipated conditions arise. In this thesis, a dynamic model of a Segway is developed and used in simulations of various conditions that can arise during normal use. The dynamic model of a general two-wheeled inverted pendulum and human rider is presented. Initial estimates of the parameters were calculated or obtained from other references. The results from numerous experiments are presented and used to develop a better understanding of the dynamics of the vehicle. The experimental data was then used to adjust the model parameters to match the dynamics of a real Segway Human Transporter. Finally, the model was used to simulate various failure conditions. The simulations provide a better understanding of how these conditions arise, and help identify which parameters play an important role in their outcome.

The concept of this study is a rotational damper pair replaces a revolute pair. First, this work is to analyze the topological structure and motion characteristics of existed rear suspension mechanisms. Then, the design criteria of the topological structure are described. Based on the design criteria of topology, the Yan’s methodology of mechanism design is applied to synthesize new rear suspension mechanisms. Furthermore, the kinematic and force ratio analysis of two new mechanisms is done well. Finally, we developed a computer program to calculate of the kinematic and force ratio characteristics of designed rear suspension mechanisms for improving the feasibility of provided theory . The results of his work are one (4,4) and five (6,7) new rear suspension mechanisms are founded. Additionally, .we also designed two feasible new rear suspension mechanisms whose motion and force ratio characteristics are better than the original ones.

碩士<br>國立臺灣海洋大學<br>電機工程學系<br>104<br>Abstract With the advance of science and technology, Internet draws us closer to each other. Mobile devices, such as tablets, mobile phones and smart watches, become more and more popular. However, in addition to text and voice, the visual function is critical. In addition, people try to explore where they can barely reach like mysterious sky or seabed. Quadcopter was developed to fly high and capture the beautiful landscapes. Unmanned submarine was used to monitor environments and give us a dream of pursuing mermaids. So, the inspiration of combining remote image sensing and robot control in the thesis was born. This paper is to have users (especially, the disabled patients) wearing a mobile phone-based VR helmet indoors which can control an exploring robot remotely with head gesture. Additionally, the remote robot will send video and audio back to the phone inside VR helmet. People far away can interact with patients by this way. Besides, mobile phones of the system can do image processing for autonomous tracking. The entire system includes mechanism, circuits and algorithms designs. For mechanism aspects, for the sake of portability, the robot car has only two wheels driven by servo motors and forms a self-balanced robot. A long stick with a camera sits on the top of moving platform in order to get a better view. Mechanical parts were designed using SolidWorks and produced by a 3D printer. For circuit aspects, the robot car uses Arduino Pro Mini as core, and calculates the attitude angles with a six-axis accelerometer. Voltage regulator module makes the power stable. UART and SPI are the interface of communication for mobile phone and transmitter. The circuit board is designed using Protel 99 SE and carved with CNC machine. For algorithm aspects, PID control is the main control method of this system. It is easy to use and popular for industry. In addition, the system can use image processing capability to help navigation. Computer vision is extremely good at localization. It can separate the target object from the background and track the target. The project integrates the mobile phone and MCU with PID and image processing algorithms. It has a purpose that the disabled people can interact with the outside world by this system and enjoy a new social life. Keywords:self-balanced robot, VR helmet, image processing, head gesture.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立臺灣科技大學<br>機械工程系<br>105<br>The goal of this thesis is to investigate the motion control performance of two-wheel inverted pendulum (TWIP) vehicle in different environment. The control kernel of this system is Arduino Nano 3.0. Accelerometer and gyroscope are used to measure the tilt angle and angular velocity of the inverted pendulum, respectively. Kalman filter is used to estimate the accurate tilt angle based on sensor fusion process. The brushless DC hub motor (BLDC) was chosen as the wheel driving power which is equipped with hall sensor for measuring the moving distance and speed of inverted pendulum. The handle bar in front of TWIP generates the signal through potentiometer to control TWIP turning. The model-free and robust fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC) is chosen for controlling this system. The experiment results show that FSMC not only can achieve TWIP stability in balance control but also achieve the velocity command in different environment (ex:flat、incline、no-load、loaded) in velocity control. The steering control algorithm also makes TWIP turning smoothly and keeps TWIP balancing. All those control schemes are integrated into the system control kernel for improving the TWIP motion performance.

An EKF-based global localization of the mobile ATAR is presented by using several artificial landmarks with given positions and four encoders mounted on four-wheeled omnidirectional base. An EKF-based approach using SURF is proposed for global localization and mapping of the mobile ATAR based on partially unknown natural landmarks. To conduct required experimentation, this thesis constructs an experimental, mobile, anthropomorphous two-armed robotic system with two anthropomorphous dual arms, a SoPC-based controlled Mecanum four-wheeled omnidirectional base and a KINECT sensor. Several simulations and experimental results are conducted to show the accuracy and performance of both proposed methods.

It is worthy to look for a possible solution on this field, especially focusing on Ordinary Heavy-Duty Motorcyclists. This thesis indicates active safety and passive safety. In the moment, ‘active safety’ applied on vehicles is difficult to match market requests, because it will rise the costs for motorcycling essentially. So we concentrated on passive safety for both, vehicles and also driver’s gear. This research uses questionnaires to analyze the acceptance of a big number of Taiwan motorcycle users, there it shows that users have low acceptance for existing protective products, especially for changes on the vehicles, because of high costs and inconvenience in usage. So for us it turned out more meaningful to focus our design improvements on the driver’s body. During the design improvement part, the author chose professional specialists from Taiwan’s motorcycle market as interviewees. We used an in-depth interview method and compared existing products with prepared ideas for improvement, collecting opinions and suggestions. Finally, the professionals came to a positive conclusion on the offered design work. According to their general impression, the design improvement shows possibilities for a safety enhancement.

Abstract:
碩士<br>南臺科技大學<br>電子工程系<br>105<br>In Taiwan, various industries suffered a bottleneck in development. Especially the catering industries, the cost of human resource labor is a very important issue. First of all, the employers can’t offer employees higher salary because of the low profit. Besides, working in the catering industries is boring and require a lot of man power that can’t attract young people to join. In this case, a better solution is using robots as a replacement. It does not only help the development of industry but also reduce human resource requirement. In this thesis, the main focus is to realize a robot based on two-wheel cars as a servant. The catering industries can combine with technology to use two-wheel self-balanced cars to replace the demand for the human resource. In addition, using Kiosk machine to order meals and two-wheel self-balanced cars to deliver meals. It can not only reduce manpower requirement but also increase the restaurant's entertainment and attract more people.

碩士<br>元智大學<br>電機工程學系<br>104<br>Two-wheeled electric vehicles may probably encounter unexpected accident with operating time increased, in this context , the two-wheeled electric vehicle has the probability of losing control, causing serious damage to users or disasters occurring. To avoid such situation occurs, this thesis design a control system contains two hardware controllers. Usually, these two hardware controllers are both in operation, another enable wafer is used to determine which output signal is adopted. Main controller of two-wheeled electric vehicle is C8051F120 development board, deputy controller is W77E058A single wafer. These two controller are always in operation, the other enable wafer AT89S51 is used to monitor the output of the main controller. Under normal conditions, the main controller executes signal processing and output controlling, when the enable wafer senses the main controller disabled, it will switch the system mastership to the deputy controller and alert, so that the operator has sufficient time to travel the two-wheeled electric vehicle to a safe place, seeking for assistance. The main purpose of the deputy controller of the two-wheeled electric vehicle is designed for backup, so we use the W77E058A single chip for low cost. Therefore, the benefits of dual-core controller is to ensure both high performance at low cost and security. Overall, two-wheeled electric vehicle not only has good performance at flat ground, slopes, meadows and rugged terrain but also has low cost, high stability and high security, etc., it has reached the goal of commercialization.

Abstract:
碩士<br>大同大學<br>工業設計學系(所)<br>105<br>Traffic jams resulting from low traffic load-rate of vehicles has become a burden to Taipei City under its rapidly expanding population and transportation. This is not solely caused by vehicles. As pointed out by Mikael Colville-Andersen (2014), the key to carrying capacity is how many people can travel on a road and not how many vehicles can travel on the road. There are many examples of adaptation to severe environments in nature through feature changing, and such feature changes are often applied in different fields by the elaborate techniques of designers. Besides creating new models of use, the applications resolve many inconveniences in life. Hence, this study examines the use of design techniques for changing features to resolve the issue of traffic jams caused by low traffic load-rate of vehicles. This study is divided into the following steps: The first step is to analyze the issue of low occupancy of vehicles in Taipei City, and understand the usage of transportation tools and preferences of commuters. The second step is to find an approach to feature change based on the demand of Taipei City citizens on transportation tools, and analyze the structure of vehicle combination. The design concept was established as changing from four-wheel larger vehicles to two-wheel smaller vehicles. The third step is implementation of the changed structure of vehicle combination, and testing its feasibility and ability to resolve the issue of low traffic load-rate of vehicles in Taipei City. This will also satisfy users’ requirements on vehicle functionality, and think outside the box of the typical vehicle, providing a basis for future vehicle design and urban development.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立雲林科技大學<br>電子工程系<br>103<br>In this study, two two-wheel balancing robots are built. The first robot, based on a rigorous mathematical model from the literature, is built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and Matrix Robotics and their accessories. The software for driving the robot is written with LabView. EV3 reads data from the encoders of the EV3 motors and a gyro, computes the motor speeds and the tilting angle of the robot, adjusts these parameters with gains, and then uses a PID method to control the speed of the motors to achieve a balancing position for the robot. The second robot is built with a FPGA development board called DE0-nano with a NIOS II/f soft core, two NXT light sensors, and two Matrix motors and accessories. The balance goal of the robot is to minimize the fluctuation of the difference of the readings of the two light sensors. The motors are controlled with PWM signals from NIOS II with a PID mechanism. While both robots can balance their positions well, the performances of their motors are compared.

Abstract:
Overlapping environmental concerns are driving the production and sales of electric vehicles. Global sharks like Bosch, AVL, Cummins, and other manufacturers were drawn to India because of its highly skilled and semi-skilled technology workforce, large client base, and affordable labour prices and enter India to manufacture electric two-wheelers. The numerous aspects that have an impact on and influence a consumer's decision to invest in and buy these cars must be studied in order to understand prejudged attitudes and perceptions towards electric 2-wheelers. Electric 2-Wheeler purchases are influenced by a number of variables, including environmental concerns, performance, infrastructure, price sensitivity, and an individual's perception of these variables. Infrastructure and price sensitivity set the stage for how customers will view electric two-wheelers, while cost and performance have an adverse effect on how quickly consumers will adopt electric two-wheelers. As a result, in order to encourage and promote the use of electric vehicles, the government must step in and make a contribution because it has a substantial impact through the development of environmental regulations, the provision of infrastructure, the subsidization of the cost of vehicles, and the lowering of bank interest rates. We all know that the 2 wheeler and vehicle industries are among the worst polluters of the environment because of the quantity of CO2 and other harmful petrol emissions that have a significant impact on the planet's pollution and climate change scenarios. Therefore, it's crucial to encourage people to buy electric cars. This study took into account four key factors, including price sensitivity, environmental consciousness, infrastructure, and performance mentioned in questionnaire that influence consumers' intentions to buy electric two-wheelers.

The design attempts to construct a low-cost human transporter using low-tech commercial components. A mechatronic system structure for the vehicle is described and its mathematical modeling incorporating with the fiction between the wheels and motion surfaces is derived. The overall system can be divided into two subsystems: rotation subsystem and inverted pendulum subsystem. Two control methods are used to maintain the inverted pendulum; they are an integral control with state feedback and a fuzzy logic control. Two kinds of control laws, including robust PD feedback control and fuzzy PD control, are proposed to achieve the rotation control. Numerical and experimental results indicate that the proposed controllers are capable of providing appropriate control actions to steer the vehicle in desired manners.

This research intends to develop a novel method for realizing a non-mechanical ABS controller for electric scooters based on the application of a regenerative, kinetic, or short-circuit braking mechanism. In which, boundary layer velocity control is proposed to ensure the optimal wheel rotating speed under the optimal slip ratio between the tires and road. The anti-lock braking controller drives the motor’s low-side braking circuit to induce an open or a short circuit loop on the motor stator’s coil to the load and hence to generate braking actions similar to those in the conventional mechanical ABS control mechanism. It’s expected that satisfactory results of this study can contribute to electric motorcyclist’s security.

As time goes by, a range of material processing and power system revolutions makes the vehicles get rid of the traditional styles and consumers are attaching increasing importance to the presentation of personalization and recreation in addition to product performance. This study probed into the history processes of double-wheeled vehicles and the advantages of modular product by discussing and arranging the literatures, and proposed the core values of design goals. Two kinds of electric two-wheel vehicles, namely “Modular Scooter Alpha+” and “Modular Competitive Two-wheel Balancing Car SR” are designed based on the concept of modularization along with different modular components to present different styles and performances, making it possible for single body to be diversified and personalized. The study independently discussed and integrated the components of vehicles of the design and the elements of an vehicle are classified into two parts, the “core car body” orienting at movement and the “modular suites” focusing on the presentation of performance and style, which makes it possible for quantity car bodies manufactured to show personal demands and style by virtue of different components. In addition, the designs are displaying by methods of 3d simulation diagram and scale model making, and the future outlook of the design herein will be determined by the feedback on the product from the interviews of vehicle design companies. From their feedback, we can safely conclude that the modular vehicles will definitely inspire a trend in the future. One of the major concerns involved is technology when it comes to actual mass production and safety; however, it’s worth expecting as a whole.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立高雄應用科技大學<br>機械與精密工程研究所<br>101<br>A novel personal mobile vehicle that has two different driving modes is developed in this study. The vehicle can be transformed from a coaxial two-wheeled car into a three-wheeled car by simply pressing a switch, and vice versa. When the car is driven in two-wheeled mode, PID controllers are utilized for velocity, direction, and balancing control. A three-wheeled car is intrinsic stable, but it is possibly to tip over when suddenly decelerated or accelerated. Thus, a simple control algorithm is proposed to prevent the three-wheeled car from tipping over. Finally, a series of experiments has been made for testing the prototype of the vehicle. The results show that it can be driven on even and uneven terrains by using the two driving modes. Besides, it can be driven to climb up and down the inclines of eight degrees easily and stably.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立中央大學<br>電機工程研究所<br>91<br>The paper controls a two-wheel robot with self-balanced ability. It is divided into two parts --- the body and two wheels. We keep the balance of robot body using the computer and FPGA. We use the gyro to measure the angle and angular velocity of body and two encoders to measure velocity and position of two wheels, respectively. Fuzzy controller is used to control the robot for moving forward and backward in this paper. The two-wheel robot with self-balanced ability is finished by two students. Two theses are proposed as follows : (A)The robot balance control system and two-wheel synchronous control system are realized in the computer, respectively. They can achieve the goal of keeping the body balance and make the rotational speed of two wheels the same. (B)The forward and backward movement control system and two-wheel synchronous control system are realized in the computer, respectively. They can achieve the goal of moving forward and backward. This thesis is focused on the research of (A).

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>機械工程研究所<br>84<br>Gear-type automatic transmissions can provide several speed ratios by means of interengaging different elements of the gear trains and the output shaft by the centrifugal clutches, and they are widely used in mechanical systems. The purpose of this work is to develop a systematic methodology for the configurations and kinematic designs of gear-type automatic transmissions for two-wheel vehicles. First, we analyze the system and find the basic characteristics of automatic transmissions out. According to these characteristics, the design procedures for both ordinary and planetary gear systems are detablished : a caralog of automatic transmissions configurations is set up from the atlas of geared kinematic chains. Then, according to the given speed ratios, a systematic porcedure for the kinematic design of gear systems is successfully developed. The teeth numbers can easily be found by using such a procedure. Finally, we can have multi- speed transmissions by combining the ordinary and planetary gear systems and present several design examples of 4-speed and 5- speed automatic transmissions as a result of this work. The results of this work are of benefit to the design of gear-type automatic transmissions for two-wheel vehicles.

碩士<br>大葉大學<br>機械與自動化工程學系<br>101<br>ABSTRACT This study shows numerous experimental results which focus on answering the question: “If we have several two-wheel vehicles, by experimental method, how can we judge which one is more stable?” Some oscillation modes concerning two-wheel vehicles can become unstable for a given vehicle speed: capsize mode, wobble mode, and weave mode. In our work, bicycles are used to develop the stability of two-wheel vehicles. A testing system is developed with appropriate sensors for measuring steering angle, vehicle roll, yaw angle, and forward speed. LabVIEW with non-linear curve fitting function is the tool of choice for data acquisition and data analysis. This system is used to judge the stability of bicycles. In this study, we accomplish experiments on different bicycles. The measurement results of these bicycle are compared together to figure out which one is more stable. Moreover, we also run the theoretical bicycle model to validate experimental results. Keywords: Bicycle Dynamics, Bicycle Stability, Bicycle Experimental Measurement, Curve fitting function.
