On the Vibration of a Square Clamped Plate
The present paper is concerned with the problem of vibrations of a square plate clamped on all four edges. We shall employ the method of finite differences and investigate the possibility of improving the accuracy of the numerical results. This problem has been treated by various 1 authors (e/. REFERENCES 1, 4 to 9) and we shall use their results as a means of testing the techniques suggested here. Since Aronszajn, using the Rayleigh-Ritz and Weinstein methods, has computed very close upper 1
