Abstract Nowadays, methods for representing the dynamic equations of coupled systems of bodies in a form suitable for numerical solution are used widely. On the basis of such approaches, universal software aimed at solving certain classes of problems is developed [1–3].

In design diagrams of mechanical systems, it is necessary to take into account various nonlinearities, including those of impact type. The representation of impact interactions with the use of nonlinear characteristics of positional forces results in increased stiffness of the system of differential equations and increased time expenditures for the solution, because it is necessary to decrease the integration step or use implicit integration methods.

In this connection, it is expedient to consider approaches based on assumptions of the impact theory, i.e., the assumptions that the time of impact interaction is negligibly small and the impact is absolutely inelastic or partially elastic.

In the general statement, an impact in a system with arbitrarily many stationary and impact constraints was studied in [4], where a special term-system impact-was introduced to denote this problem, showing that the constant and discontinuous constraints are multidimensional.

In the present paper, we give a method for the numerical implementation of the methods proposed in [4] with the use of the FRUND software designed for modeling the dynamics of systems of rigid and elastic bodies [2]. We analyze the efficiency of their application.

According to [4], the system impact problem is stated as follows. For a many-body mechanical system with arbitrary kinematic constraints, it is required to determine the impact discontinuity of velocities as the number of constraints varies instantaneously.
