Calibrating testing of push-bike

“

- [Instructor] Now that we have a finished push bike, it's time to test to make sure that the push bike that we designed on the computer, the push bike that we simulated is actually the push bike that we built. Now we try to keep the process as digital as long as possible so that we can recreate this process over and over again, but it's always good to go back and validate and make sure that everything went right. So here, we have a testing fixture that we built that replicates the same types of loads and forces that we saw in the simulation. So what we're doing here is we're going to put the bike in the fixture and we're going to load it up with the same forces, and then we're going to measure and see the deflection that we see on the frame. Now, if the deflections are, you know, very similar to what we're seeing in simulation, we're going to take notations to make sure we know why there's any sort of change, but if…
