# The nonlinear Schrödinger equation created by the vibrations of an elastic plate and its dimensional expansion

• We first survey the two-dimensional governing equation that describes the propagation of a wave packet on an elastic plate using the method of multiple scales by [13]. We next expand the governing equation to the multi-dimensional case not only in the sense of mathematical science but also engineering.
