Bicycle dynamics

GitHub URL	https://github.com/murrayrm/fbs2e-python/blob/main/bicycle.py
Requires	python-control

This page documents the bicycle dynamics model that is used as a running example throughout the text. A detailed description of the dynamics of this system are presented in Chapter 4 - Examples. This page contains a description of the system, including the models and commands used to generate some of the plots in the text.

Note: the Python code on this page makes use of the Python Control Systems Library, an open source software toolbox for control systems analysis.

Figures making use of this model:
