“…Numerical methods are often used by engineers and researchers for plate buckling, bending and vibration analysis, because they can usually provide numerical solutions that meet engineering requirements with acceptable errors. Such methods include, but are not limited to, the finite element method EC 40,6 1330 (Kanaka and Venkateswar, 1976;Tianyu and Kapania, 2018), finite difference method (Karamooz Ravari et al, 2014;Karimi and Shahidi, 2017), boundary element method (Ding et al, 2002;Paiva, 2018), discrete singular convolution method (Civalek, 2007;Omer et al, 2010;Xinwei and Zhangxian, 2017) and Rayleigh-Ritz method (Bhat, 1985;Monterrubio, 2012), etc.…”
