Abstract
Vehicle excitation by passing over pavement unevenness represents the actual problem which is solved on many departments in this time. The numerical methods are mainly applied for the solutions of the interaction of similar systems. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is the best-known and widely used. It provides appropriate accuracy. In this article, commercial computer software ADINA based on the FEM is used to solve kinematic excitation of vehicle. The 2D model of vehicle which represents real type of lorry T-815 is excited by simulation of passage across obstacle. There are compared dynamic responses of the vehicle on the kinematic excitation at different speeds.
