FREE VIBRATION OF ISOTROPIC HALF-ELLIPTIC PLATES OF LINEARLY VARYING THICKNESS WITH CLAMPED CURVED BOUNDARY

Two-dimensional boundary characteristic orthonormal polynomials are used in Rayleigh-Ritz method to study the title problem. In general, it is found that this method gives better results than the other traditional method such as boundary integral equation methods, Spline methods, Chebyshev collo...
