Simplified approach of free vibration analysis of plates supported in vicinity of the corners by BEM

Free vibration analysis of Kirchhoff plate by the Boundary Element Method is presented in the paper. The boundary integral equation are derived according to the Bettie theorem. The collocation version of BEM with non-singular approach with one and double collocation points is used. The constant type of element is introduced. Boundary suport at selected point is modelled as support in vicinity of point along single boundary element.
