Abstract

Note presenting a nonlinear plate theory of motion, valid for large deflections, in the light of the three-dimensional theory and other nonlinear plate theories. The nonlinear equations are solved for the case of propagation of straight-crested waves and the wave velocities are computed for various values of the parameters involved.
