Abstract
Forced axi-symmetric vibrations of polar orthotropic linearly tapered circu lar plates are discussed on the basis of classical plate theory. Ritz metho d has been employed to obtain the solutions. The deflection function and th e bending moments for forced vibrations of the plate are presented for vari ous values of taper parameter and rigidity ratio. A comparison of results w ith those available in literature shows an excellent agreement. (C) 2000 Ac ademic Press.
