Symplectic superposition solutions for free in-plane vibration of orthotropic rectangular plates with general boundary conditions

Abstract This work reports new analytic free in-plane vibration solutions for orthotropic non-Lévy-type rectangular plates, i.e., those without two opposite edges simply supported, by the symplectic superposition method (SSM), which has never been applied to in-plane elasticity problems in any exist...

description Abstract This work reports new analytic free in-plane vibration solutions for orthotropic non-Lévy-type rectangular plates, i.e., those without two opposite edges simply supported, by the symplectic superposition method (SSM), which has never been applied to in-plane elasticity problems in any existing works. Such analytic solutions are not accessible through conventional analytic methods as seeking analytic solutions that meet both the governing partial differential equations and various non-Lévy-type boundary conditions is an acknowledged challenge in mechanical analysis of plates. The clamped and free plates are considered as two most representative cases of non-Lévy-type plates. The SSM is implemented in the Hamiltonian system-based symplectic space, where the separation of variables and the symplectic eigen expansion prove to be well-grounded. These two mathematical treatments are adopted to first gain the analytic solutions of two elementary problems. The final analytic free in-plane vibration solutions are obtained by superposition of the two elementary problems. Comprehensive new natural frequencies and vibration modes are studied and validated by reference solutions from the finite element method or other approaches. The rigorous solution procedure, fast convergence, and highly accurate results render the present framework capable of serving as benchmarks for future comparison and applicable to analytic investigation of more plate problems.
