Extract

In their earlier paper the first two authors have given a solution to the problem of bending of clamped skew plates. The solution was obtained using the eigenfunctions of a beam. They have shown in their discussion that their results agree with other investigators except Kennedy who has used Galerkin's method. It was surprising to note that though both the authors’ and Kennedy's methods converged well, the results did not agree for all the cases and the difference being maximum for the rhombic case. It was mentioned in the discussion that additional work was desirable to resolve the difference. Hence in this note results using a different approach have been presented both for clamped and simply supported isotropic skew plates subjected to uniformly distributed load and the results are compared with the available ones.
