The unicycle operation is a good exercise for training of the sense of balance, the agility and the ability to coordinate the body according to situations. This paper aims to give an interpretation of the relationship between the moment balancing point (MBP) and the center of pressure (CP) in a riding a unicycle from the human motion viewpoint. This paper shows derivations of Human-Unicycle model motion equations according to the Projection Method, and represents the relationship between the MBP and the CP of the the model by considering structure and constraint reaction forces of the model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
