Abstract: | Elliptical and circular fibre reinforced composite plates are important structural elements in modern engineering structures. Vibration analysis of these elements are of interest to structural designers. The present paper deals with the free transverse vibration analysis of symmetrically laminated solid and annular elliptic and circular plates with several complicating effects.The approach developed is based on the Rayleigh–Ritz method where the deflection of the plate is approximated by a general shape function of polynomial type.The analysis includes several complicating effects, such as the presence of an internal hole, an internal ring support, several concentrated masses and the boundary elastically restrained against rotation and translation.Several examples are solved and some results which correspond to particular cases are compared with existing values in the literature. New results are also presented for cross-ply and angle-ply elliptical and circular laminates with different boundary conditions.The algorithm developed can be applied to a wide range of elastic restraint conditions, to any aspect ratio and to higher modes. The effect of the restraint parameters along the boundary on the natural frequencies for plates with these complicating effects is considered. |
