Abstract
The vibration responses of orthotropic plates on nonlinear elastic foundations are numerically modeled using the differential quadrature method. The differential quadrature technique is utilized to transform partial differential equations into a discrete eigenvalue problem. Numerical results and those from literature closely correspond to each other. Numerical results demonstrate that elastically restrained stiffness, plate aspect ratio and foundation stiffness significantly impact the dynamic behavior of orthotropic plates.
