Summary

Using simplified equations of the nonlinear theory of plates derived by H. M. Berger, several complex problems concerning the determining of the deflection of plates, with accuracy to a normalized constant, have been solved. They concern the infinite plate strip, the half-infinite plate strip and the finite rectangular plate.
