Abstract
Linear theory is established for general multilayer aeolotropic plate subject to in-plane forces and transverse loading; it is shown that coupling phenomenon occurs, between in-plane forces and transverse bending, in differential equations as well as in boundary conditions; special types of heterogeneity are indicated for which coupling of stretching and bending disappears; solutions for plate problems are given as examples.
