On the Steady Transverse Vibrations of a Rectangular Orthotropic Plate

The problem of the steady transverse vibrations of a rectangular orthotropic plate under the classical Kirchhoff theory assumptions is considered. Two-dimensional problem is reduced to one-dimensional via the modified spline-collocation method. One-dimensional problem is numerically solved with the stable discrete orthogonalization method. Numerical results for three resonance frequencies and plots for deformed middle-surface are presented for three types of boundary conditions on the edges.
