The development of differential quadrature element method (DQEM) free vibration analysis model of nonprismatic Bernoulli–Euler beams resting on Winkler elastic foundations was carried out. The DQEM uses the extended differential quadrature (EDQ) to discretize the differential eigenvalue equation defined on each element, the transition conditions defined on the inter-element boundary of two adjacent elements and the boundary conditions of the beam. Numerical results solved by the developed numerical algorithm are presented. They prove that the DQEM is efficient. The developed numerical algorithm can be used to analyze the related pressure vessel and piping structures.

A new numerical technique, the differential quadrature element method (DQEM), has been developed for solving the free vibration of the discontinuous Mindlin plate in this paper. By the DQEM, the complex plate domain is decomposed into small simple continuous subdomains (elements) and the differential quadrature method (DQM) is applied to each continuous subdomain to solve the problems. The detailed formulations for the DQEM and the connection conditions between each element are presented. Several numerical examples are analyzed to demonstrate the accuracy and applicability of this new method to the free vibration analysis of the Mindlin plate with various discontinuities which are not solvable directly using the differential quadrature method.
