dc.description.abstract | In this report, we design and analyse an affordable e-bicycle to be adopted by daily urban
commuters. With the scope being Kampala city, the project looks at mitigating pollution, hence
reducing the air pollution related diseases like cancer. The report includes designing an optimal
e-bike through efficient selection of material, mathematical analysis and use of computer aided
design software with much focus on the e-bike’s transmission system. The current e-bikes
imported from abroad are expensive to the locals and thus resort to use of internal combustion
engines, bicycle cycling and walking. The conventional bicycle would be a good substitute for
the problem but it involves continuous pedaling while draining energy from the user. | en_US |
