In this investigation Rayleigh-Ritz variational method has been applied to determine the least natural frequency coefficient for the title problem. Classical plate theory assumptions have been used to calculate strain energy and kinetic energy. Coordinate functions are combination of polynomials which satisfy boundary conditions at the outer boundary and trigonometric terms. In the second part ...

An alternative to the classical Ritz method for approximate optimization is investigated. In the extended Ritz method, sets of admissible solutions are approximated by their intersections with sets of linear combinations of all n-tuples of functions from a given basis. This alternative scheme, called variable-basis approximation, includes functions computable by trigonometric polynomials with f...

An alternative to the classical Ritz method of approximate optimization is investigated. In the extended Ritz method, sets of admissible solutions are approximated by their intersections with linear combinations of n-tuples from a given set. This approximation scheme, called variable-basis approximation, includes functions computable by trigonometric polynomials with free frequencies, neural ne...

In the present study, a vibration analysis of functionally graded rectangular nano-/microplates was considered based on modified nonlinear coupled stress exponential and trigonometric shear deformation plate theories. Modified coupled stress theory is a non-classical continuum mechanics theory. In this theory, a material-length scale parameter is applied to account for the effect of nanostructu...

For a given subspace, the q-Rayleigh-Ritz method projects the large quadratic eigenvalue problem (QEP) onto it and produces a small sized dense QEP. Similar to the Rayleigh-Ritz method for the linear eigenvalue problem, the q-Rayleigh-Ritz method defines the q-Ritz values and the q-Ritz vectors of the QEP with respect to the projection subspace. We analyze the convergence of the method when the...

A generalized solution procedure is developed for in-plane free vibration of rectangular and annular sectorial plates with general boundary conditions. For the annular sectorial plate, the introduction of a logarithmic radial variable simplifies the basic theory and the expression of the total energy. The coordinates, geometric parameters and potential energy for the two different shapes are or...

in this paper, the ritz-galerkin method in bernstein polynomial basis is applied for solving the nonlinear problem of the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) flow of third grade fluid between the two plates. the properties of the bernstein  polynomials together with the ritz-galerkin method are used to reduce the solution of the mhd couette flow of non-newtonian fluid in a porous medium to the solution o...
