Abstract
The vibration of a flexible elastic plate is investigated by a Monte Carlo technique. The response analysis is performed in time domain by numerically simulating the resulting generalized forces. The nonlinear plate deflection and mutual interaction between the plate motion and external and/or internal airflow is included. The fluid perturbations due to the structural motion are described by linear aerodynamic theory. The boundary-layer pressure field is idealized as a homogeneous multidimensional Gaussian random process with mean zero. The plate differential equations of motion and boundary conditions are satisfied in a Galerkin sense by developing a modal solution. Illustrative examples are presented for subsonic and supersonic flow regions using shallow cavity and two plate mode approximations.
