How can you calculate the dispersion curves for plate?

07 April 2013 1 10K Report

I'm to identify the Lamb Modes in plates and use these data to compare to experimental data. Is there an open-source code to calculate the dispersion and attenuation curves for plate based on cp, cs, thickness and the density?
