Bike sharing systems have been in use since the 1960’s, from the modest beginning to one of the fastest spreading services today. Each generation of bike sharing systems had its challenges, but the advancement in technology was and is a key factor in eliminating any short comings or problem facing it as well as opening new opportunities for enhancing the service and the user experience. The main focus of this thesis is to propose a new design concept of bike sharing system using axiomatic design theory, the concept consist of a modified bike sharing model that can help solve some of the challenges faced by the traditional models while meeting the customer’s needs and the basic functional requirements of a traditional bake sharing program.
Axiomatic design theory provides a method for the design of products, it makes it possible to design structure and decompose function at the same time. Utilizing currently available technologies such as electrical components and global positioning systems, the new system will include a new design for the bike, the docking station, central control station, and payment systems.
