Vibration of variable thickness plates with edges elastically restrained against translation and rotation

TL;DR: In this paper, the vibration analysis of variable thickness plates in one direction with edges elastically restrained against both rotation and translation is investigated using the finite strip transition matrix technique, and boundary conditions in the variable thickness direction are satisfied identically and the boundary condition in the other direction are approximated.

An analog equation solution to dynamic analysis of plates with variable thickness

TL;DR: In this article, the analog equation method (AEM) is applied to dynamic analysis of plates with variable thickness, both free and forced vibrations are considered, and the fourth order partial differential equation with variable coefficients governing the dynamic response of the plate is converted to a quasi-static plate bending problem under a fictitious time dependent load.

Special Methods for Plate Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors classified the special boundary element methods for the solution of plate bending problems into five groups: (a) Methods based on the biharmonic analysis, (b) Indirect boundary element method (IBEM), (c) Boundary differential-integral equation methods (BDIEMs), (d) Green's function methods (GFM), (e) Other methods which lack common characteristics.

Bounding Eigenvalues of Elliptic Operators

TL;DR: In this article, the error between an estimate for a point in the spectrum and an eigenvalue of self-adjoint elliptic operators is bounded by using trial functions which need not satisfy the boundary conditions of the problem.
