Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立雲林科技大學 === 機械工程系 === 103 === Bicycle is a convenient tool in transportation for modern people, such as the highly promoted YouBike. The convenience and comfort of riding is getting more and more remarkable. One of the crucial factors in riding comfort is saddle. The purpose of this study is discussing how to design saddles by means of mechanical analysis. A finite element software named ANSYS workbench by Swanson Analysis System, Inc. is mainly used as simulation software for designers to analyze mode, stress and deformation. It shows designers if resonance happens in riding; if fracture happens because of stress, or if deformation generates discomfort. Therefore, designers can modify the paddles purposefully, so that the cost and time will be saved, and the quality and performance of saddles will be elevated.
