Abstract
Analyses of beams and plates are conducted using the spline collocation (interpolation) method, which may not be well known to engineers. A brief literature review of the method is given and the method is explained. Then it is applied to example beam and plate problems. Results are compared with those obtained by the differential quadrature method (DQM) and available analytic results. Good results are obtained and some problems encountered in using DQM for such problems are resolved.
