Initial design of mechanical products nowadays extensively utilizes simulation models which allow fast design procedure. In this work automotive gage panel (GP) is designed based on Finite Element Model (FEM). The stationary and transient behaviors of the gage panel under dynamic excitations as well as stress distribution under static loading are investigated. Dynamic behavior of the gage panel is obtained by solution of the full FEM models in case of random excitations as well as polyharmonic loading. The results of numerical experiments are used for metamodel based GP frame bracket shape optimization.
