The fundamental solutions and the boundary element method for obtainin
g numerical solutions of nonlinear Reissner plates on an elastic found
ation are presented in the paper. The derivation of the fundamental so
lutions is mainly based on two of Hu's functions and the resolution me
thod of differential operator. An incremental form of the boundary int
egral equations is suggested to achieve linearization of the original
nonlinear equations. The plate may be moderately thick or sandwich pla
tes with (or without) elastic Foundation. Finally, three examples are
considered to illustrate the correctness and accuracy of the proposed
method.
