Keywords:
Mode shape, Free vibration, Clamped plate, CP-DSG4 elementAbstract
This work aims at presenting mode shapes for free vibration of clamped plates with various geometries based on a four-node quadrilateral element, CP-DSG4, related to discrete shear gap (DSG) strategy and adding a center point (CP). The efficiency of the CP-DSG4 element is demonstrated through some numerical tests.
