Abstract

Numerical results are presented to study the vibration behaviors of a thin rectangular composite plate with distributed small holes. Such porous plate (namely, plate with many small holes) may be used to reduce the weight of plate elements in the weight-sensitive structures. Up to the present, however, analytical approaches have not been well developed due to the difficulty of incorporating the effect of small holes in the plate vibration theory. In the present report, a new method is proposed to analyze such porous plates by developing a special finite element where the hole is located in the center of the element. In numerical examples, natural frequencies are calculated for the porous rectangular plate with various edge constraints, and the feasibility is studied to determine the optimum distribution of holes within the plate region.
