In the present paper, the dynamic interaction between a wheelset of a high-speed-train car and a railway track is considered with the help of a discrete-continuous mechanical model. This model enables us to investigate the bending-torsional-axial vibrations of the wheelset coupled with the vertical and lateral vibrations of the track through the wheel-rail contact forces. The results of numerical simulations performed for the wheelset motion both on straight and curved tracks demonstrate qualitative similarities of the corresponding dynamic responses of the system and essential quantitative differences of the respective amplitude and average values. Particularly severe interaction between the wheelset and the track is observed in the form of periodic resonances caused by parametric excitation from the track.
