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
A variant of the Rayleigh-Ritz method is presented for solving the free vibration problem of annular plates with internal axisymmetric supports. The method is simple, accurate and may be readily programmed and run on a microcomputer. A comprehensive tabulation of the fundamental frequencies is prese
The study of the transverse vibrations of rectangular plates is among the most widely studied topics in structural dynamics, and the application of the assumed modes/Rayleigh-Ritz method to derive models of this vibration for various sets of boundary conditions has been employed for nearly the entir
In this paper, the free vibrations of a wide range of non-uniform rectangular plates in one or two directions are considered. The domain of the plate is bounded by x = a 1 a, a and y = b 1 b, b in rectangular co-ordinates. The thickness of the plate is continuously varying and proportional to the po
