A theoretical analysis is presented for the large amplitude vibration of symmetric and unsymmetric composite plates using the non-linear finite element modal reduction method. The problem is first reduced to a set of Duffing-type modal equations using the finite element modal reduction method. The m

β¦ Synopsis
A finite element time domain modal formulation is presented for the large amplitude free vibration of plates. The procedure of deriving the non-linear modal equations of motion is simple and general. Accurate frequency-maximum deflection relations can be obtained for the fundamental and higher non-linear modes. The percentage of participation from each linear mode determines the number of modes to be included for accurate frequency results. Numerical examples on beams and square plates are given and compared with classical continuum analytical solutions. A plate of complex planform and boundary conditions is also given to show the versatility of the presented modal formulation.

## This paper presents an approximate solution to the title problem for the .following situations: (a) supported and clamped rectangular plates, (b) circular plates with edges elastically restrained against rotation, and (c) beams with ends flexibly attached. The approach is quite simple and it is
This paper presents a new Dynamic Finite Element (DFE) formulation for the vibrational analysis of spinning beams. A non-dimensional formulation is adopted, and the frequency dependent trigonometric shape functions are used to find a simple frequency dependent element stiffness matrix which has both
