The task of achieving the increase in the weight and velocity of trains being core objective for most railways is inherently associated with solving problems of improving the dynamic qualities of wagons and locomotives during their interaction with the upper structure of the railway track. The strength and stability of rolling stock against derailment in various climatic zones should be ensured together with minimizing operating costs.Analysis of the reliability and performance of the wagon–track system can be conducted based on multivariate dynamic calculations of mathematical models and through experimental studies of dynamic vibrations. Currently, the issues of the influence of changes in the elastic-hysteresis properties of various impact absorber materials under the action of temperature factors on the elements of a multi-mass vibratory system remain insufficiently studied. The purpose of the research described in the article was to analyze the dynamic processes taking place in a multi-mass wagon–track vibratory system under the influence of changes in stiffness and internal friction coefficients of a damping rail component depending on a type of structural material and ambient temperature.The research resulted in elaborating model of multi-mass vibratory wagon–track system. Multivariate model calculations were carried out regarding various stiffness and internal friction parameters of damping elements situated under the rail; the parameters being selected from experimentally constructed dynamic hysteresis. The work presents results of calculations of the reaction forces and deviations in the elements of the vibratory system depending on temperature, type of material, thickness and design of damping elements.
