The automatic activation of emergency calls (eCalls) in the case of serious accidents is mandatory for all new cars sold in EU since 2018. It is desirable to investigate similar devices also for motorcycles. A challenge specific to single-track vehicles is the fall/crash detection. Indeed, non-negligible roll angles are involved in normal riding and the vehicle dynamics may include peculiar phenomena such as wheelie and stoppie, that should not trigger an eCall. The aim of this work is to devise and employ a multibody model to simulate the main fall and crash patterns of motorcycles. The model can be used to test the robustness of fall/crash detection algorithms as well as to support the development of the algorithms themselves.
