Abstract
The finite element method, in which form functions for rectangular ele ments satisfy equations of motion, is employed to study planar vibrati ons of thin, rectangular, piezoelectric plates. Resonance frequencies, natural mode shapes, the distribution of the sum of fundamental stres ses, and other characteristics important to piezoelectric transformer and resonator design are calculated.
