For the first time to the authors' knowledge, the problem of free vibration of a moderately thick rectangular plate with edges elastically restrained against transverse and rotational displacements is considered. The Ritz method combined with a variational formulation and Mindlin plate theory is use

โฆ Synopsis
A procedure using the "nite strip element method in combination with a spring system is proposed to treat the free vibration analysis of plates on elastic intermediate supports.
Results indicate that the spring system can successfully simulate elastic intermediate supports such as point supports, line supports, local uniformly distributed supports and mixed edge supports. From the results, it is also evident that support sti!ness and support areas have signi"cant in#uence on the free vibration response of plates on line supports and local uniformly distributed supports.

In this paper, the free transverse vibrations of a system of two rectangular simply supported thin plates connected by a homogeneous Winkler elastic layer are investigated analytically. The small vibrations of the system are described by a set of two partial di!erential equations, based on the Kirch
