Frequency equations are obtained for Rayleigh–Lamb wave propagation in a plate of micropolar elastic material with voids. The thickness of the plate is taken to be finite and the faces of the plate are assumed to be free from stresses. The frequency equations are obtained corresponding to symmetric and antisymmetric modes of vibrations of the plate, and some limiting cases of these equations are discussed. Numerical computations are made for a specific model to solve the frequency equations for symmetric and antisymmetric modes of propagation. It is found that both modes of vibrations are dispersive and the presence of voids has a negligible effect on these dispersion curves. However, the attenuation coefficient is found to be influenced by the presence of voids. The results of some earlier works are also deduced from the present formulation.
