Fiber metal laminates (FMLs) are high-performance hybrid structures based on alternatingstacked arrangements of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) plies and metal alloy layers. Inthis paper, effect of some geometrical and material parameters on free vibrations of FMLplates was studied. The first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) as well as the Fourierseries method was used to analytically solve the governing equations of the compositeplate. The accuracy of the used method was verified by comparing the Rayleigh-Ritzanalytical method and the ABAQUS finite element software (numerical) method. The resultsindicated that some of the important parameters like sequence of metal layers, aspectratio (a/b) of plate and orientation of compositefibers were important factors affecting free vibration of the FMLs.
