Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Aerodynamic drag in field cycling with special reference to the Obree's position

Notas: Sumario: In cycling at race speeds, 90% of total resistance opposing motion, depends on aerodynamic drag of air, which is directly proportional to the effective frontal area. The total resistance opposing motion was measured on a cyclist, in an open velodrome, in order to evaluate the effective frontal area in four different positions on a traditional bicycle: upright position, dropped position, aero position and Obree's positionRegistros relacionados: En: Ergonomics. - London [etc.]. - Vol. 40, nº 12, December 1997 ; p. 1299-1311Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Ciclismo Resistencia Postura Métodos de cálculo Ecuaciones Otros autores: Grappe, Frederic
