In this paper, a coupling of improved element-free Galerkin (IEFG) method and semianalytical finite strip (FS) method is presented for free vibration analysis of thin plates. This method is very easy to implement and has advantages of both IEFG and FS methods, so that IEFG method is used in sub-domain with complex geometry, and FS method is used for the remaining domains. The use of the FS method considerably reduces the analysis time, and the essential boundary conditions are easily enforced in FS subdomain. In the IEFG method, the shape function does not have the Kronecker delta function property. Therefore, Lagrange multipliers method is used to satisfy the boundary conditions. Finally, five examples are presented to show the effectiveness of this work.
