Recent advances in plate vibration research at the University of Hong Kong
Abstract
In this paper, the recent advances of study on plate vibrations in The University of Hong Kong are introduced. The research work follows the well-known Rayleigh-Ritz method, which includes three parts. The first part is the study on two-dimensional vibrations of thin plates and shear deformable plates using the static beam functions as the basic functions. The second part is the study on three-dimensional vibrations of thick plates, based on exact elasticity theory and using the Chebyshev polynomials as the basic functions. And the third part is the study on plate-liquid interaction by using a semi-analytical method.
Fields of Study & Subjects
