This paper is a survey of literature concerning dynamics of plate-type structural elements of either composite material or sandwich construction. Papers which appeared from late 1976 through early 1979 are reviewed. Special attention is given to anisotropic plates, laminated plates, thick and sandwich plates, and nonlinearities. Free vibration and various kinds of forced vibration are treated, as well as classical and finite-element methods of analysis. (Author)
