AbstractPurpose of the paper is to design a basic two degree of freedom (2-DOF) rail vehicle model in SOLIDWORKS software, to analyze vertical vibrations of the designed model in Motion Interface of the software and to show the result is almost same with the result obtained by transfer function of the system. In this study, to obtain dynamic response was used vertical harmonic excitations supplied by slider-crank mechanism. Transfer function of the system was generated after getting equations of motion and then the dynamic analysis was done by using SOLIDWORKS Motion Interface. As a result, displacement, velocity and acceleration graphs taken from both methods were compared and this comparison showed that the period values of both methods were exactly same after equilibrium position and the amplitudes values of both methods had the same results by a maximum error of 0.87%.
