The article is devoted to the analysis of the dynamic characteristics of the mechanical system composed of rigid bodies mutually connected with flexible bindings that represent springs and dampers. The analysed system represents the rail vehicle, which is distinguished by the contact link between the wheel and rail, or wheelsets and the track. Currently, analyses of similar type are carried out basically by using commercially distributed software packages, where you enter inputs (which the input forms allow) and the user may achieve results respecting the handling procedures. In accordance with the different approaches to solutions of partial solutions of the issue, the results of the simulations can differ. In the article the theoretical analysis is conducted the parameters of calculation are set out and the results are compared with the results obtained from the calculation by SIMPACK.
Key words: integration methods / mechanical system / rail vehicle / stability / results comparison
