transient vibration of a plate

Hi,
I am trying to find out the transient vibration of a clamped plate by applying a time dependent load of 100*sin(2*pi*f*t), where t is for time and f = 100 Hz.. The load is uniformly acting on the surface of the plate. Therefore, I am expecting that the displacement with respect to time of a point on the plate should also be sinusoidal. However, I am not getting that. Please inform me, if I am wrong here.
I am attaching my model for your reference. In the model, I have found the amplitude of displacement at the middle point.
Any kind of help would be happily appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Kiran,
I've tried to open your file with Comsol v4, but no analysis node was present. Thus I cannot see what are your settings for the time dependent analysis.
In any case, I've noticed that you draw a 3D geometry but the shell application mode is assigned only to one surface.
I think that if you want to model just a plate, a surface embedded in the 3D space is sufficient.
Please also note that you obtain a sinusoid as output only if you employ a time step in your time dependent analysis which is at least 1/10 of the period of your input load.
I hope this help.

Hi Alessandro,
Thanks a lot for your valuable information. I had done the modeling again by taking your inputs. However, I have got almost the same result, even though I used a time step of 1/20th of the time period of the input force. I am attaching the model (your comments incorporated in the model) here with for reference.
I did the modeling in Comsol 3.5a. That's why you may not be able to open the file.
If anybody has any kind of comments on this model, please do so. I will happily appreciate it.
Thanks,
Kiran
