An analytical method for the free vibration of single circular plate submerged in a fluid-filled rigid cylindrical vessel was developed by the Rayleigh-Ritz method based on the Fourier-Bessel series expansion. It was assumed that the plate is clamped at an offcentered location of the cylinder, and the non-viscous incompressible fluid contained in the cylinder is bisected by the plate. It was found that the theoretical results can predict well the fluid-coupled natural frequencies with excellent accuracy comparing with the finite element analysis results. The offcentered distance effect on the natural frequencies was also observed.
