Boundary Characteristic Orthogonal Polynomials in the Study of Transverse Vibrations of Nonhomogeneous Rectangular Plates with Bilinear Thickness Variation

The free transverse vibrations of thin nonhomogeneous rectangular plates of variable thickness have been studied using boundary characteristic orthogonal polynomials in the Rayleigh-Ritz method. Gram-Schmidt process has been used to generate these orthogonal polynomials in two variables. The thickne...
