Design of Electrical Bicycle using Matlab-Simulink

This paper provides a comprehensive study on the modeling and design of an electric bicycle employing MATLAB-Simulink. It investigates the functioning of the electric bicycle and its sensitivity to varying environmental conditions such as rider weight, wind speed, and gradient via simulations. The paper leverages dynamic equations to reflect an electric bicycle's operation in different scenarios, solved through the MATLAB-Simulink program. This approach aids in determining the required motor power output, under various operating circumstances. The authors emphasize the importance of understanding the operations of electric bicycles and their responses to different conditions, showcasing mathematical modeling as a crucial tool for designing efficient e-bicycle power systems. The study considers crucial design elements including efficiency, eco-friendliness, noise reduction, speed, charging time, and overheating prevention. References to cognate works on electric two-wheelers underpin the research. The findings contribute valuable insights for the design of electric bicycles, advocating for the promotion of environmentally friendly urban transportation. The paper concludes that this modeling approach offers promising potential for the future of urban mobility design, particularly for transitioning towards all-electric transportation.
