Literature survey on the dynamics of plate and shell structures
Abstract
Scope of Study: The aim of this report is to outline and summarize the study that has been done in the area of vibration of plate and shell structures. A brief description of vibration of grids is also made. Findings and Conclusions: The Rayleigh-Ritz method appears to be the most useful method for finding a reasonable approximate solution for natural frequencies of vibration of thin elastic plates and shells. This literature survey will serve the first step toward the complete comprehension of the vibration problems in plate and shell structures; it will be very beneficial in future investigations of this problem.
