The influence of boundary conditions on the sound radiation characteristic from rectangular plates is studied in this paper. Using an analytical method, the transverse displacement response of vibrating rectangular plates is presented. Some numerical experiments are also done. Five different types of boundary conditions are analyzed and calculated as examples for comparing the influence of different boundary conditions. Rectangular plates under different force points and different thicknesses are also studied for further verifying the influence of boundary conditions.
