Abstract
This paper presents the experimental validation of a computational multibody model of a scaled railway vehicle. Several test have been carried out using an instrumented 1:10 scaled vehicle running on a 5-inch-gauge scaled track. The computational model proposed assumes a weakly couple lateral and vertical dynamics. The obtained results show a good agreement between experiments and simulation. It has been concluded that the computational model satisfactory reproduces the scaled vehicle dynamics.
