Abstract

An approximate method of solution is constructed for the Robin problem in a finite domain, for the system governing the bending of elastic plates with transverse shear deformation. The structure of this generalized Fourier series technique is inspired by the form of the integral representation formula for the solution. A numerical example is also shown, which illustrates the accuracy and efficiency of the procedure.
