Abstract
In this chapter, we will consider two-dimensional, continuous vibrating systems, with and without stiffness. An ideal membrane, like an ideal string, has no stiffness of its own, and thus, its oscillations depend upon the restoring force supplied by an externally applied tension. A plate, on the other hand, like a bar, can vibrate with fixed or free ends and with or without external tension.
