“…A comparison of frequency parameter Ω for homogeneous (α 1 = α 2 = β 1 = β 2 = 0) square (a/b = 1) plate of uniform (γ 1 = γ 2 = 0) thickness obtained by Rayleigh-Ritz method [7,34,37], exact and approximate results using Ritz method [33], Differential quadrature method [11,36], Optimized Kantorovich method [35] and non-uniform thickness obtained by finite element method [6], Rayleigh-Ritz method [7,9], differential quadrature method [11], optimized Kantorovich method [35] has been presented in Table 2. A close agreement of results is obtained.…”
