Prediction of the in-plane vibration behavior of porous annular plate with porosity distributions in the thickness and radial directions

A semi-analytical model is proposed in this study to investigate the in-plane vibration behavior of porous annular plate with porosity distributions in the thickness and radial directions. A variational method combined with a multi-segment technique is employed to establish the theoretical model of elastic restrained porous annular plate. Admissible functions of each plate segment are expanded in the mixed series form, that is, the Jacobian...
