Abstract.
An approximate method for the determination of natural frequencies of clamped elastic skew plates is presented. The classical differential equation of motion for the transverse displacement of a plate is assumed to apply. The deflection is expressed in terms Of an infinite series. The boundary conditions of zero slope and deflection are satisfied exactly. A modified Galerkin technique is used to minimize the error resulting from the substitution of the proposed deflection function into the equilibrium equation.
