Vibration analysis of Kirchhoff plates is of great importance in many engineering fields. The semi-discrete and the fully discrete Morley element methods are proposed to solve such a problem, which are effective even when the region of interest is irregular. The rigorous error estimates in the energ

โฆ Synopsis
An explicit time integration finite element method is proposed to investigate dynamical analysis of Kirchhoff plates, where the Morley element is used for spatial discretization and the second-order central scheme for time discretization. Certain error estimates in the energy norm are achieved. A number of numerical results are included to show computational performance of the method.
