Cycling as a mode of transport is getting increasingly more attention from academics and governments around the world. It improves the physical and mental well being of citizens, it is efficient in terms of space and it provides economic benefits. However, traffic engineers and urban planners of these cities currently lack the means to...

The Netherlands is confronted with challenges such as traffic congestion, overburdened public transportation, and obesity. These issues could potentially be mitigated by elevating the cycling modal share. To attain this objective, the Dutch central government has introduced a range of strategies aimed at fostering commuter cycling. This study...

Cycling is a type of recreational activity that is rarely utilized for everyday travel needs except in some countries such as the Netherlands. Health can be improved as a result of increased mobility, and by encouraging people to use public transit or cycles instead of their automobiles, traffic jams, and pollution may be reduced. The adoption...

In cycling, the presence of drag reduction from drafting, when multiple cyclists ride in tandem, is a considerable area of performance enhancement for a cycling team and the customisation of this tandem group has the potential of maximising the drag reduction for the entire group or a specific cyclist. The flow interactions between two tandem...

Though cycling as a transportation method is widely seen as a sustainable method, professional cycling and racing are not. Though the first calls for sustainable action are made and the first efforts start to appear, not much has changed yet in the complex world of professional cycling.<br/>This report describes the design of a sustainability...

The mobility world is changing due to demographic transformations, sustainability challenges, and technological advancements. Consumers and governments seek sustainable and inclusive mobility solutions that cause less environmental strain, less noise pollution, and safer traffic. The mobility solutions must combine into a coherent platform for...

With an increase in interest in putting people on bikes instead of driving vehicles for day-to-day transport, new regulations are being implemented to make roadways safer for cyclists while also encouraging cycling behavior among various segments of the population. The perception of safety has been proven to play a significant role in the...

The COVID-19 pandemic had a strong impact on travel behaviour and Dutch societal perspectives on that travel behaviour. During 2020 and even the first half of 2021, the number of airplane passengers and train passengers saw a massive drop during the pandemic. The car, while definitely affected early in the pandemic, saw less of a drop and car...

The domain of triathlon seems promising for Cadomotus, a company specialising in helmets, bags, and shoes. Right now, they are known for high-end ice-skating equipment, but the triathlon market seems a great fit and they want to expand further there. A new triathlon specific product would solidify Cadomotus in the market as truly understanding...

Up to now, not much is known about how humans control bicycles, especially when subject to large perturbations. In order to learn more about the extent to which these perturbations can be handled, a new experimental setup is required, which can deliver large perturbations to cyclists and bring them to fall. This thesis describes the detailed...

Most of the characterisation of muscle activation patterns while cycling has been performed using indoor trainers. Little research has analysed whether the same pattern is used when cycling outdoors in road conditions. Therefore, this study compares lower limb muscle activity during cycling outdoors and using indoor trainers. Eight trained...

Nowadays cycling rates in most European cities are increasing, while many governments are looking for ways to integrate cycling into the daily lives of citizens not only as a leisure activity but also as an official means of transport. At the same time, a large part of the population itself aims to influence decision-makers and urban planners to...

Travel time is an integral part of all human activities. In transport planning, travel time is one of the most widely used and significant parameters in the design of transport systems. However, people's ability to estimate travel time and time, in general, is limited. The aim of this thesis is to broaden the knowledge on the perception of...

In order to stop climate change, it is inevitable to transition to more environmental-friendly ways of transportation, such as cycling. An important criterion for selecting the bicycle as a modality is the distance to the destination. An increase in travel distance coincides with a decrease in modal share of bicycles compared to alternative...

Minimum-time optimisation has been used extensively in motorsports, such as Formula One racing. Using minimum-time optimisation, the ideal racing line as well as control strategies such as braking strategies can be found. This is interesting, as Reijne et al have shown that cyclists apply diverse strategies, specifically during a descent [1]....

Research and design about the use of bicycles in and around the building. By stimulating cycling it can provide a solution for congestion in dense cities, be an alternative for the car and have 0 emissions but above all positively influence the health and well-being of people. The research and design show how to stimulate movement and how to use...
