Ikerbs Phase 4 Trials for Inclusive Suitability of kerbs in a number of key city environments

People Involved

Project Description

Phase 4 will build apon Phases 2 and 3 with trials and experimentation: User engagement and Trials. Phase 3 findings will be consolidated with Phase 2 and final report development under Phase 4. In addition, A series of experimental trials will see participants of divers capabilities will traverse a kerb rig at Merchiston, with experimental parameters of kerb height and profile. Results will be integrated into final report on efficacy of kerbs design for inclusive populations.

IntelliBike: developing tools for dynamically correlating saddle vibration with cycle-path condition Jun 12, 2012 - Jul 31, 2014
Eco-friendly, sustainable modes of transport are to be encouraged. IntelliBike is a tool for assessing the state of our off-road cycle paths. It does this by relating vibrations measured under the saddle to the state of the path. It also measures: no...
