Abstract:
The mass of very small vehicles is often comparable to that of their drivers, and thus there is a greater degree of coupling between the vehicle and the driver, compared with a case for traditional vehicles. When developing small vehicles, it is necessary to give ample consideration to the dynamics of the person who ride them. Here, a model of a human body riding a small personal vehicle was constructed to investigate the dynamics of the person inside such a vehicle. Moreover, an experiment on posture maintenance by acceleration of direction of travel was conducted and the parameters for posture control were identified using a genetic algorithm. Results shows that body behavior could be successfully simulated using the proposed model, and the control parameters were effective in determining the posture maintenance characteristics of the vehicle occupant.
