Swept Path Analysis for Bicycles
Swept Path Analysis can also be done for bicycles to improve cycle infrastructure designs. As more cities struggle with traffic congestion there is a growing need for other types of transportation, like bicycles. Just like other vehicles, bikes have their own turning radius. If nobody is driving the bicycle, it would need very little space for a turn. However, the swept path of the bicycle will increase if the speed of the bicycle increases. To ensure a good traffic flow for cyclists the bicycle infrastructure design plays an important role.
The latest version of AutoTURN Pro includes a tool to check how cycles and scooters move and how much space they need when turning and includes a library of different cycle types (e.g., bikes with trailers, recumbent cycles, scooters) to simulate their movements. The software is capable of analyzing cycle manoeuvrability when turning to improve infrastructure design. An essential tool for planning and designing cycle paths and bike lanes in a modern city.
