In this paper, differential quadrature and Rayleigh-Ritz methods are presented for computation of the fundamental frequency of simply supported, homogeneous, isotropic, thin rectangular plates with the thickness tapering linearly in one direction. The complete analytical formulation and solution pro

The title problem is solved assuming that the thickness varies symmetrically with respect to the x-axis. The edges defined by x = \_ a/2 are elastically restrained against rotation while the remaining edges are clamped or simply supported. Approximate expressions for four of the lower natural frequ
The title problem is solved using very simple polynomial co-ordinate functions and a variational approach. Rather general boundary conditions are assumed at the edge support. It is shown that the approach is valid jor axi-and antisymmetric modal configurations.
