Clamped thin rhombic (skew) plate — out-of-plane bending modes on a highly skewed planform; a stringent element-distortion check for plate bending.

Tolerance:
5%

Problem statement

Geometry
Rhombic plate, side 10 m, skew angle 45 degrees, thickness t = 0.05 m.
Material
Steel: E = 200 GPa, nu = 0.3, rho = 8000 kg/m^3.
Boundary conditions
All four edges fully clamped (w = 0 and both rotations fixed); in-plane motion constrained at all nodes (out-of-plane bending model).
Measured quantity
First six natural frequencies: 7.938, 12.835, 17.941, 19.133, 24.009, 27.922 Hz.
