Symplectic Superposition Solution of Free Vibration of Fully Clamped Orthotropic Rectangular Thin Plate on Two-Parameter Elastic Foundation

Based on the method of separation of variables in Hamiltonian system and superposition method, the series expansion solution of the free vibration problem of orthotropic rectangular thin plates (ORTPs) with four clamped edges (CCCC) on two-parameter elastic foundation is obtained. The original vibration problem is decomposed into two subproblems with two opposite sides simply supported, and the general solution of each subproblem is obtained by using the expansion of symplectic eigenvectors. Then by superposing these two general solutions, the series expansion solution of the original problem is obtained. The advantage of this method is that the solution process is carried out in symplectic space, and the validity of variable separation and symplectic eigenvectors expansion ensures the rationality of the solution process, while avoiding the presetting of the solution form. Finally, the correctness of symplectic superposition solution obtained in this paper is verified by calculating three concrete examples of fully clamped rectangular thin plates.
