An analysis method is proposed for the vibration analysis of the Mindlin rectangular plates with general elastically restrained edges, in which the vibration displacements and the cross-sectional rotations of the mid-plane are expressed as the linear combination of a double Fourier cosine series and four one-dimensional Fourier series. The use of these supplementary functions is to solve the possible discontinuities with first derivatives at each edge. So this method can be applied to get the exact solution for vibration of plates with general elastic boundary conditions. The matrix eigenvalue equation which is equivalent to governing differential equations of the plate can be derived through using the boundary conditions and the governing equations based on Mindlin plate theory. The natural frequencies can be got through solving the matrix equation. Finally the numerical results are presented to validate the accuracy of the method.

SummaryThe problem considered is the buckling of a rectangular plate under uniaxial compression. The ends may be either both clamped, both simply-supported or a mixture of the two. The sides may be elastically restrained against both deflection and rotation with any stiffnesses whatsoever. It is shown that the curve of buckling stress coefficient versus side ratio can be deduced in a simple manner from that of a plate with the same end conditions but with both sides simply-supported, provided only that the buckling stress coefficient and wavelength for an infinite strip with the same side conditions are known. Some correlations between the curves for the three types of end condition are discussed. It is also shown that if, for some given side ratio, the buckling mode is known, then it is always possible to deduce the rate of change of buckling stress coefficient with side ratio at that point. The argument is based upon an assumption which is shown to give very accurate results in a wide range of cases.
