Abstract

The analysis of cylindrical shells for free vibrations using the nodal line finite difference method has been presented in a companion paper (part 1) (2]. The reader may also refer to reference [1] for some more details. In this paper the application of the nodal line finite difference is verified by many numerical examples. In addition, the applicability of the nodal line finite difference method for the analysis of thin plates by making use of the degenerate theory developed by Gibson [4] is demonstrated.
