  • BIKE 2070: Physics for Bikes

    1.00 Credits
    Minnesota State College Southeast

    This course covers the physics that control the operation of bicycles. The concepts of balance, momentum, rolling resistance, aerodynamics, and stability will be explored in theory and during lab work. Also covered will be how energy is expended by the rider and how this energy is transferred into motion of the bicycle in terms of efficiency and power. Power losses such as aerodynamic drag, friction, and frame flex, and ergonomics will be explored. How electric assist can impact power will also be discussed. Additionally, the thermodynamics and heat transfer of braking systems and how this energy transfer can impact frame and wheel design, and brake component performance will be explored in the classroom and the lab. The concepts relating to rider fit and position on the bicycle relative to power and efficiency will be covered. A discussion of how loads are applied to the frame and wheels, and typical failure points is also covered. (Prerequisite: none) (1 credits)
