This paper presents the nonlinear dynamic equilibrium equations for an orthotropic plate based on the 3D nonlinear equations of elasticity theory. The resulting plate model provides a high accuracy. The advantage in accuracy is shown in statics using the Vlasov model problem of a hinge-supported plate under sinusoidal load.

Key words: anisotropic plates, nonlinear theory, bending.
