Why is it important?
The material properties were identified through updating four parameters in the governing equation of a symmetrically laminated thin plate. A classical solution was derived by letting the series exactly satisfy the governing differential equation and all the boundary conditions at every field and boundary point. In the Inverse method, the series expansions for all the relevant derivatives of the eigen frequencies were obtained through term-by-term differentiations of the displacements.
Perspectives
Many simulations were done but one numerical example is presented to demonstrate the accuracy and convergence of the solutions.
