3.4.1 ElliptiGO
A patent for an elliptical bicycle was first registered in 2008. In 2010 ElliptiGo subsequently secured the exclusive rights to the patents. An elliptical bicycle is a device that uses a running-like elliptical motion to propel a bicycle. The first elliptical bike prototype, codenamed “Alfa,” was completed by mid-2006.
In 2010, the ElliptiGO 8S, the company's first commercially available elliptical bike was brought to the market. Figure3.4.1: ElliptiGo Bicycle (First Elliptical Bicycle)
3.4.2 Improved Feature of Elliptical Bicycle
In 2015, the American Council on Exercise (ACE) commissioned an independent study to determine the effectiveness of a workout on the ElliptiGO bike and how it measures up to accepted fitness industry

The follower arm, which is the link that connects the crank arm to the slider, connects to a pin in the center of sliding object. This pin is considered to be on the linear movement axis. Therefore, to be considered an in-line crank slider, the pivot point of the crank arm must be in-line with this pin point. The stroke (ΔR4) max of an in-line crank slider is defined as the maximum linear distance the slider may travel between the two extreme points of its motion. With an in-line crank slider, the motion of the crank and follower links is symmetric about the sliding axis. This means that the crank angle required to execute a forward stroke is equivalent to the angle required to perform a reverse stroke. For this reason, the in-line slider-crank mechanism produces balanced motion. This balanced motion implies other ideas as well. Assuming the crank arm is driven at a constant velocity, the time it takes to perform a forward stroke is equal to the time it takes to perform a reverse …show more content…
These generalized relationships are displayed in the form of 3 equations and can be used to determine unknown values for almost any offset slider-crank. These equations express the link lengths, L1, L2, and L3, as a function of the stroke,(ΔR4)max, the imbalance angle, β, and the angle of an arbitrary line L3, θ. Arbitrary line 3 is a designer-unique line that runs through the crank pivot point and the extreme retracted slider position. The 3 equations are as

In the article, I have selected to compare to my experience with the Mikes Bikes Simulator, was one that explained how a young man came across a deal to not only better himself, but also better the lives of those around him by targeting his business towards a certain group of people. The article goes on to explain how Trey Harris the owner of Colony Ridge Land was developing lots for homes in Plum Grove, a smaller town outside of Houston, by doing so it helped the Latino laborers find good quality homes that were up to code, at much more affordable rates. The cost of living was significantly lower because of these homes not being in such a large populated city as Houston. To attract the Latino laborers, he advertised the subdivisions, as Grand
P6 review physiological data collected, describing the effects of exercise on the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory and energy systems Cooper Run The first test I did was the Cooper twelve minute test. This tests ones endurance. Advantages of this test is that you don’t need a lot of equipment, it is simple to set up and do so this won’t take up too much time. More than one person can do the test and one time.
Motocross is a dangerous and exciting sport. It keeps growing bigger every year. A lot of people say it’s not a real sport, but I would love to see them do it. The history of motocross is very interesting.
Belief Healthy Weight Week has been around for a little over 20-years. This nationally recognized event gives a chance to look at yourself for who you are… Ideally, the healthy norm of Healthy Weight Week is to overlook any shortcomings and begin setting weight goals and allocating supplies for this type of relationship with yourself. In relation, your New Year’s Resolution easily comes into play; believe in your own goals, too.
The measured tensions were normalized relative to the maximum tension and the lengths were normalized relative to the length at which maximum force was generated (Ln = 29 mm). The measured data and expected data were plotted together (Figure 3). Correlation between measured and expected tensions at the same normalized lengths was determined for the three expected segments of the length-tension relationship.2,3,4 This was done using piecewise linear regression and yielded r2isometric = 0.956033. The fitted curve for the isotonic experiment resulted in r2isotonic = 0.960557. The F0 was 19.5 N for the fit and 6.35 N for the guess.
This paper gave me a chance to go out and get ideas from people in my community. I wasn't to surprised with some of the feed back I got because it's actually what I expected. You can stop it, but you can find safer ways to allow them to ride safely and not on the streets. I believe there are ways to decease the amount of dirt bike and ATV riding that take place on Philadelphia street. Here are some ideas that myself and the community came up with to reduce the illegal dirt bike and ATV riding/ use on our Philadelphia streets.
Urbanization and the growth of cities along with their populations created a need for better forms of transportation, more productive technology in factories, and more efficient ways to communicate with other people. These needs gave way to many different inventions seeking to meet those demands. One of the most important of those was the cable car, the first of which was invented in San Francisco in 1876. The cable car, a means of transportation dependent on cables and tracks, was far from perfect. Even though cable cars were incredibly expensive, the benefits outweighed the drawbacks and soon cable cars and regional equivalents (like trolley cars and streetcars) spread across the country.
An innovation in public transport was the cable car, first introduced to the United States in 1868 in New York City. Another innovation that revolutionized public transport was the streetcar which is also known the tram or the trolley. Streetcar system were built in most of the major cities by the eighteen-eighties. They allowed people who lived in suburban areas to commute into the city for work. An invention by the 1890s were the first motor buses.

As said by Louise J. Kaplan, “Adolescence represents an inner emotional upheaval, a struggle between the eternal human wish to cling to the past and the equally powerful wish to get on with the future”. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah is going through her adolescent age which brings a lot of emotional changes in her life. Hannah was a very devoted, ignorant and hard working girl in the start of the story. When she was 15 years old she slowly changed and now wanted to be independent and didn 't like to follow the rules anymore. By the end of the story, she broke all the rules and wanted to follow her heart 's desires.
Ever since I acquired my first bysicle at the age of six, I was certain that biking would forever be my favorite pastime. I felt like I could go on my bike for an eternity and never become fatigued. If I were to ever get lost, my supreme navigational skills would place me back on the right track, or so I thought. My belief was soon to be challenged Fresh out of my junior year of high school, summer was in full swing. Only having my phone and a bottle of water, I hit the streets.
How many times have you taken a ride on an escalator? You know, that moving staircase with steps that move up or down or horizontal propelled by a conveyor belt? Most often you'll find the escalator in departments stores, malls, or airports, train stations, and hotels. Browsing the web, you'll find fascinating media and related visuals devoted soley to escalators.. From the world's smallest , longest and deepest to featured escalator races, slinky races and other tips and tricks.
