An efficient and accurate numerical method in the study of the vibration of rectangular plates with cutouts and non-homogeneity is presented. By dividing the problem domain into appropriate rectangular segments, the deflection function for the originally complex domain can easily be found. The metho

An analytical model is developed to predict the modal characteristics of thin-walled circular cylindrical laminated shells with free ends. The shell is orthotropic and has mid-plane symmetry. By using Love's first-approximation shell theory, a strain energy functional containing both bending and str
Letter to the Editors ## COMMENTS ON 'VIBRATION ANALYSIS OF PLATES WITH CUTOUTS BY THE MODIFIED RAYLEIGH-RITZ METHOD' Dr K. Y. Lam and coworkers must be congratulated for their interesting contribution and useful results. 1 It is felt, however, that a more careful mathematical analysis is needed
The spline finite strip method which has long been applied to the vibration analysis of bare plate has been extended in this paper to stiffened plates having arbitrary shapes. Both concentrically and eccentrically stiffened plate have been analyzed. The main elegance of the formulation lies in the t
