Abstract

This paper aims to present comprehensive lists of accurate natural frequencies of isotropic thin free rectangular plates constrained only by translational springs distributed uniformly on the edges. Analytical and numerical approaches are employed to study the free vibration of the plates. The first approach is an extension of Ritz method, and second approach is the finite element method coded by the author. Numerical examples cover rectangular plates from totally free plate to totally simply supported on all edges. Convergence and comparison studies are made to establish accuracy of these solutions. Nine numerical examples are presented in terms of different of elastic constraints, and the lowest six frequency parameters are provided in the examples with different aspect ratios.

Abstract

This paper presents comprehensive lists of natural frequencies for vibration of thin isotropic annular plates with outer and inner edges elastically constrained by translational and rotational springs. A method is extended from a previously presented Ritz approach to include effects of the springs. In numerical examples, sixteen models are considered to cover all general cases of locating translational and/or rotational springs on outer and/or inner edges in addition to classical boundary conditions of free and simple supported edges. After convergence study and comparison test in specific cases are made to validate solution accuracy, frequency parameters of the sixteen models are summarized and frequency variations with increasing spring stiffness are illustrated.

Abstract

Comprehensive and accurate numerical results are presented for natural frequencies of thin isotropic, simply supported rectangular plates additionally constrained by rotational elastic springs on the edges. For complete coverage of combination, the number of all the combinations in boundary conditions of simply supported, rotationally constrained and clamped is calculated by Polya counting theory, and all sets of frequency parameters are tabulated for the lowest five modes. The Ritz method, along with displacements assumed in special polynomial form with boundary index, is used to include the strain energy stored in the rotational springs. Convergence and comparison studies are made to demonstrate accuracy of tabulated results, and the frequency parameters are listed for the fifteen sets of boundary conditions and various spring stiffness of the square plates. Some results are also presented for rectangular plates.
