Abstract
In this article, the authors used two different numerical approaches for frequency response of annular sector and sector plates with functionally graded materials and laminated composite cases. First-order shear deformation (FSDT) and Love's conical shell theories are used for obtaining the annular sector plate equations via some suitable angles and geometric parameters. The method of harmonic differential quadrature (HDQ) and discrete singular convolution (DSC) have been used for numerical solution of the resulting governing equations for modal analysis. Simple power-law and four-parameter power law distributions in terms of the volume fractions of constituents have been used for FGM composites. Comparison and convergence study for the present numeral methods have been made via existing results available in the literature for sector and annular sector plates. Frequencies values for annular sector/sector plates have been obtained for different material and geometric parameters, boundary conditions and sector angles.
