Wr. Bielski et Jj. Telega, A NONLINEAR ELASTIC PLATE MODEL OF MODERATE THICKNESS - EXISTENCE, UNIQUENESS AND DUALITY, Journal of elasticity, 42(3), 1996, pp. 243-273
Three problems are solved for a nonlinear model of elastic plates with
transverse shear deformations. The material of the plate may be aniso
tropic. An existence theorem is formulated and proved for a class of b
oundary conditions. A uniqueness theorem is given for small loadings.
The dual problem is derived and the minimax or Lagrangian approach is
discussed.
