In this paper, the free vibration analysis of thin rectangular plate with dowels on nonlinear elastic foundation is investigated. The load transfer on dowels is modeled as vertical springs, whose stiffness depends on the dowel properties and the dowel-plate interaction. Based on Hamilton variation principle, the nonlinear governing equations of thin rectangular plate with discontinuities on nonlinear elastic foundation are established, and the suitable expressions of trial functions satisfying all boundary conditions are proposed. Then, the equations are solved by using Galerkin method and harmonic balance method. The numerical simulation reveals the effects of the dowel parameters and the other ones of the system on free vibration behaves of the disconnected thin rectangular plate.

<p>An improved Fourier series method is presented for the free vibration analysis of the moderately thick laminated composite rectangular plate with general elastic supports and point supports resting on an elastic foundation. The approach is based on the first order shear deformation theory and foundation effect using two-parameter Pasternak foundation model. The displacement and rotation functions are generally sought, regardless of boundary conditions, as Fourier series and supplementary functions. All the series expansion coefficients are determined using the Rayleigh-Ritz technique. The excellent accuracy of the current results is validated by comparing them with existing results.</p>
