I did this in ANSYS, but I am wondering what is the analytical solution to this. Does anyone know?
The discussion focuses on finding the analytical solution for the resonant modes of a simply supported square plate under a central load, specifically using the formula k=(48EI)/(l^3) derived from the principles of plate theory. ANSYS was mentioned as a tool used for numerical analysis, but the participants are seeking a theoretical approach to validate their findings. The key takeaway is the relationship between the flexural rigidity (EI) and the plate dimensions (l) in determining the resonant frequencies.
PREREQUISITESMechanical engineers, structural analysts, and students studying vibrational analysis and plate theory will benefit from this discussion, particularly those interested in validating numerical results with analytical solutions.
