The interaction of the vehicles with the pavements imply damaging effects on both systems, as a function of the operating conditions and design characteristics of both systems. These effects influence the road pricing as well as the maintenance costs of the vehicles. In this paper, a simulation scheme has been proposed to analyze such interaction in massive way, involving a multivehicle models was the uncoupling of the roll and pitch responses. Results suggest that the damaging effects on the pavement and the vehicle, depends on the position along the road profile. However, the vertical design of the road would mainly affect the pavement damage, while the turning maneuvers would strongly influence the damage of the vehicle. Many uses can be identified for the proposed simulation scheme, involving different design and operating conditions for both systems.

A model of the cargo – ship interaction has been presented, for a navigation environment in which there is no waves, in which the ship lateral stability depends only on the manoeuver performed and the characteristics of the ship and cargo. Several simplifications have been introduced in the model, including the circular bottom of the ship, which facilitates the location of the buoyancy force on the ship, and the analogy of the sloshing cargo motion to a simple pendulum. Two forms of damping were introduced (river waters with the ship´s hull and the friction of the liquid inside the tanker walls), while the sliding motion of the ship when turning has been assumed as negligible. The results suggest that the sloshing cargo influences the lateral stability of the river tanker, with increases in the maximum roll angle from 15% to 40%, as a function of the speed and the fill level. The maximum roll angle has been found to occur at a 75% fill level, regardless of the ship speed.

An experimental testing rig has been proposed to study the dynamic interaction between a liquid cargo and the carrying vehicle during turning maneuvers. The basic operational principle of the testing rig consists in simulating the lateral accelerations associated to turning maneuvers through the use of a tilt table.
While the experimental capabilities of the testing rig include the analysis of the effects of the cars on the whole transport infrastructure, including sleepers and ballast, a first use of the rig considered the effect of sloshing cargo on the level of dynamic forces transmitted to the rails. Such test was used to validate a simplified theoretical approach consisting of a two degree-of-freedom double pendulum mechanical system, where a simple pendulum, representing the sloshing cargo, is articulated to the spring-supported vehicle chassis, which is modelled as an inverted torsional pendulum. While the theoretical results exhibit a high correlation with the experimental data, the main discrepancy between both outputs, relates with the frequency of the residual vibration, once the lateral acceleration input is ceased. Such difference in frequency, would imply an underestimation of the number of loading cycles to which the infrastructure is subjected. On the other hand, the peak values are within acceptable difference levels.
