Global Gaussian Collocation Method for Free Vibration Analysis of Laminated Composite Plates

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present paper we used the global Gaussian collocation method and trigonometric shear deformation theory to analyze free vibration of laminated composite plates. Natural frequencies computed by the present method are found to agree well with those from some available published results.
