TL;DR: In this paper, the complementary energy method is applied to the free vibration analysis of various structural components, including prismatic and tapered bars, prismatic beams, and axisymmetric motion of circular membranes.

TL;DR: In this article, the numerical technique of differential quadrature for the solution of linear and non-linear partial differential equations, first introduced by Bellman and his associates, is applied to the equations governing the deflection and buckling behaviour of one-and two-dimensional structural components.

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of thin, rectangular, orthotropic elastic plates, with immovable edges and undergoing large deflections, is investigated by the numerical technique of differential quadrature.

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of thin, circular, isotropic elastic plates with immovable edges and undergoing large deflections was investigated by the numerical technique of differential quadrature, and approximate results were determined with the aid of a symbolic manipulation computer program and a Newton-Raphson technique to solve the nonlinear systems of equations.

TL;DR: The numerical technique of differential quadratrue overcomes some of the shortcomings of energy, perturbation, analytical, and numerical methods for the problem of geometrically nonlinear bending of plates.
