Based on the explicit time-domain method in conjunction with the equivalent linearization technique, an efficient analysis algorithm is developed for the random vibration analysis of the coupled vehicle-bridge system with local nonlinear components under the random irregular excitation from a bridge deck. With the coupled vehicle-bridge system divided into two subsystems, the equivalent linearized subsystem for the vehicle subsystem with the hysteretic suspension spring is constructed for the given time instant using the equivalent linearization technique. Then the dimension-reduction vibration analysis for the equivalent linearized coupled vehicle-bridge system can be carried out based on the time-domain explicit method, which has been proven to be highly efficient. The numerical example indicates that the proposed approach is of feasibility.
