Abstract

A procedure is discussed for realizing some exact analytical eigenfunctions and corresponding eigenfrequencies for vibrating membranes with fixed rectilinear edges delineable on a grid of squares and their diagonals. By the membrane-plate analogy, the corresponding eigenmodes and frequencies of simply supported vibrating plates of the same shapes may be obtained. The fundamental modes of certain shapes with curved boundaries are also considered.
