Critical Review of the Literature

 From the literature review it has been

observed so far that free vibration analysis
for laminated composites have been done
extensively using FEM .
 Analytical research have been done using
different methods so far, but there are not
much vibration studies on composite
plates with cutouts.

Objective
 To understand free vibration analysis of plate
structures using FEM.
