A method of computing the natural frequencies of vibration of flat plates of arbitrary shape is outlined in which the plate is considered as an assemblage of elements. Both stiffness and inertia matrices are derived for a rectangular isotropic plate element of uniform thickness, and these matrices are used to find the natural frequencies of square plates subject to various boundary conditions. Comparison of finite element frequencies with known exact, experimental and energy solutions shows the method to give good results even for relatively few elements.

Abstract The classical theory of small amplitude shallow water waves is applied to regular polygonal basins. The natural frequencies of the basins are related to the eigenvalues of the Helmholtz equation. Exact solutions are presented for triangular, square, and circular basins while pentagonal, hexagonal, and octagonal basins are solved, for the first time, by an efficient Ritz method. The first five eigenvalues of each basin are tabulated and the corresponding mode shapes are discussed. Tileability conditions are presented. Some modes (eigenmodes) can be tiled into larger domains.
