Revolution time period and finds Euler performing free vibration analyses of plate problems (Euler, 1766). Chladni, a German physicist, performed experiments on horizontal plates to quantify their vibratory modes. He sprinkled sand on the plates, struck them with a hammer, and noted the regular patterns that formed along the nodal
