Abstract
A simple model presented here for vibration of a visco-elastic, orthotropic parallelogram plate with linear thickness variation in both directions. Using the separation of variables method, the governing differential equation has been solved for the vibration of a visco-elastic, orthotropic parallelogram plate having clamped boundary conditions on all four of the edges. An approximate but convenient frequency equation is derived by using the Rayleigh-Ritz technique with a two-term deflection function. The time period and deflection function at different points for the first two modes of vibration are calculated for various values of taper constants, aspect ratio and skew angle.
