Upper and Lower Bounds for the Frequencies of Rectangular Cantilever Plates

Abstract
The authors use a recently developed procedure for lower bounds and the Rayleigh ‐ Ritz procedure for upper bounds to estimate frequencies of free vibration of thin rectangular cantilever plates. The applicability of the lower bound procedure is demonstrated, and calculations are given for a symmetry class of normal modes. The lower bounds seem to be the first rigorously obtained for this problem. The upper bounds are improvements over previously published rigorous results.
