abstract={The main objective of the present investigation is to study linear temperature behavior of orthotropic rectangular plate of bi-direction variable thickness. The thickness of the plate is considered as linearly in x-direction and parabolically in y-direction. Rayleigh-Ritz technique has been employed to obtain fundamental frequencies for the first two modes of vibrations. The effect of structural parameters such as taper constants and thermal gradient with c-c-c-c boundary condition has been taken. Numerical results thus obtained are shown graphically. Excellent agreement is noted when comparison is made with previous available experimental data.},
