Abstract

In this study, the
finite differences and the method of integration were compared to find
displacements in an elastic plate under sinusoidal loading. This question type,
which is one of the common examples in the literature, is available with
various methods. Application engineers mostly use Microsoft Excel excel macro
program, VBA, has written program codes for both finite element method and
integration method. The difference between the results of these programs and
the CPU time is calculated.

Keywords

Finite Difference Method, Integration Method, Elastic Plate, Microsoft Excel Macro
