Abstract

Semi-analytical simulation methods have the potential to facilitate the integration of multibody simulationfor bicycle design and dimensioning. Operating loads measured at the system boundaries are applied as anexcitation to the bicycle within a multibody simulation to calculate accurate internal loads during complexdriving operations. However, a mandatory requirement for this method is the availability of measurementdata. To broaden the applicability of semi-analytical simulation methods, this paper investigates the transferabilityof measurement data sets to different bicycle structures. Given the impracticality of conductinga direct load comparison in the time domain due to time shifts, a comparison of total accumulated damageover a test track is conducted at validation points distributed along the structure.
