Extract

Simple Formulae are presented for the first three bending-type and the first torsion-type natural frequencies of any constant thickness cantilever triangular plate. The formulae are derived by a semi-empirical method. Comparison of calculated frequencies with test values indicates agreement within a few per cent. for a variety of plate plan forms.
