Analysis and simulation are performed for a simplifiedmodel of a skateboard in the absence of rider control. Equations of motion of the model are derived and the problem of integrability of the obtained equations is investigated. The influence of various parameters of the model on its dynamics and stability are studied.
Keywords:
skateboard, nonholonomic constraints, integrability, stability of motion
