dc.description.abstract | The Parker Hannifin Corporation Hydraulics Department hosts the annual Chainless Challenge, which challenges universities to design the best bicycle with a hydraulic connection and no chain between its pedals and drivewheel. The University of Michigan and the Environmental Protection Agency have charged us to pioneer the first U of M Hydraulic Bicycle Team in the same spirit as the Solar Car and mini-Baha teams. The objectives of our project are to design the bicycle with the greatest possible acceleration due to a pre-charged hydraulic accumulator and design a pedaling system that allows a cyclist to continue riding after initial acceleration. | en_US |
