But after apply the constraint I am not getting the correct mode shapes. Rather than bending, the plate is translating in x-z plane. Although I am applying boundary condition by constrainting the center nodes in 5 DOF and leaving it to translate only in y-direction

I hope you will be able to see it now-
I am basically interested in getting...
Hello,
I am doing modal analysis of a composite plate exposed to base excitation. The plate is fixed at the center with the nut and allowed to move in y-direction due to the vibrations. After designing my plate, if I don't put any boundary conditions, my mode shapes are coming very correct but...
