Natural frequencies of thin rectangular plates clamped on contour using the Finite Element Method

摘要

This paper presents the determining of natural frequencies of plates without and with damages using the finite element method of SolidWorks program. The first thirty natural frequencies obtained for thin rectangular rectangular plates clamped on contour without and with central damages a for different dimensions. The relative variation of natural frequency was determined and the obtained results by the finite element method (FEM) respectively relative variation of natural frequency, were graphically represented according to their vibration natural modes. Finally, the obtained results were compared.
