The dynamic behavior of a rectangular thin plate under parametric and external excitations is investigated. The motion of the thin plate is modeled by coupled second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Their approximate solutions are sought by applying the method of multiple scales. A reduced system of four first-order ordinary differential equations is determined to describe the time variation of the amplitudes and phases of the vibration in the horizontal and vertical directions. The steady-state response and the stability of the solutions for various parameters are studied numerically, using the frequency-response function and the phase-plane methods. It is also shown that the system parameters have different effects on the nonlinear response of the thin plate. Moreover, the chaotic motion of the thin plate is found by numerical simulation.
