Abstract
Although there have been considerable number of technical papers that deal with free vibration of flat plates made of metal and composite materials, the vibration behavior of thin and thick sheet glass plates has not been clarified enough, and there has not been reported to answer the question of whether the classical plate theory is applicable to sheet glass plates. In the present report, vibration analysis and modal analysis measurement are conducted to compare both sets of natural frequencies and mode shapes, and the applicability of the conventional vibration analysis method is confirmed.
