The effectiveness of the modified Fourier method associated with the use of orthogonal splines is shown when solving the problem of dynamics of a circular membrane with an elliptical hole. A posteriori estimates of the accuracy of the obtained approximate solutions complement the previously proven theoretical convergence of the algorithm and characterize the high accuracy of solutions to the problem of membrane dynamics with a curved boundary. The differences between the approximate solutions of the problem presented in the form of finite series decrease with an increase in the number of grid nodes used in calculations.
