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
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 plate characteristic functions are used to express the deflection shapes in the Rayleigh-Ritz method to study rectangular plate vibrations. Since the plate characteristic functions are reasonable approximations to the vibration modes, they are found to improve the convergence of vibration freque
